Some progress on my next animation - The Oval Portrait - based on the story by Edgar Allen Poe. I rendered the wife with an alpha channel and the painted in Affinity and Photoshop layers of the painting in progress, almost to completion. This will be projected on to the canvas as the artist works to give the impression time is passing.

That's neat. I'll be interested to see how this works into the final movie.

I just out it in the shot and it works as I thought so I am pretty happy with it. I finished the entire "Oval Portrait" part of the film believe it or not over the last few days. I still need to to do the first part of the narrator walking through the hall of paintings and finding the book and portrait in the bedroom. Trying to resist the temptation to cut out more form that section because I feel I'm doing it to save me work, not improve the story.
