It's... WILD WEIRD!
I have been helping my good friend, @AndySchuhler on his wonderful project called, Wild Weird.
A turn around done to explore and sell the design of Mighty and his trusty hat, Sleepy.

- A lot of people asked "how did you do that" from the last post. This is the trick I learned a long time ago. It's basic perspective but it really does show how forms move in space. The trick to it is drawing an accurate top down view to reference as you turn the character.
00:00 - Replying to @JMotion0If I am being totally honest I had NO IDEA what "Big chungus" was. I thought we were referencing the original 1941 cartoon when Bugs impersonates Elmer. It wasn't until the animation director, Spike Brandt, told me about "Big Chungus"... and I still didn't understand. I'm old--
- 5 years ago I animated this just for fun over a lunch break. #mattwilliames #ballet #roughanimation #handdrawnanimation #penciltest
00:00 - In the spirit of finding old animation I did from commercials, perhaps you'll remember this little ditty from 2011
00:00 - Here is the clean-up version (by Ginny Parmele) of the only shot I did for “Pups of Liberty”. Was great to work with Bert and Jennifer Klein again. Bert is the reason I got hired straight out of CalArts on Looney Tunes: Back in Action. I had no idea what I was doing... circa 2014
00:00 - OK, here we go! Mogens is the first character I even was given the responsibility to supervise on. This shot pretty well sums up the feeling of Smeerensberg and Mogen's relationship to Jesper. #Klaus #KlausNetflix #mattwilliames #handdrawnanimation #penciltest
00:00 - Once a design is getting honed in it is common to do animation tests to test drive it. This was also done to help convince The Rock to do the voice. Animated by me #superpets #therock #handdrawnanimation #mattwilliames
00:00 - An oldy :) Slinky cat from an unfinished animated film I worked in almost 10 years ago! #mattwilliames #handdrawnanimation #penciltest
00:00 - This shot was a blast to do. I took out the long camera truck out so you could really see what he is doing. Mogens is all subtext. #thespastudios #Klaus #klausnetflix #mattwilliames #handdrawnanimation #penciltest
00:00 - This was about as far as I got tying down before the shot was cut and OOP. #handdrawnanimation #penciltest #mattwilliames
00:00 - The second of the 2 Wolf shots I animated in MP Returns. In this shot I animated all three characters, I particularly enjoyed the Weasel. Eventually the Wolfs expression would be "softened" by another animator per the directors note as I had already left the project for Klaus.
