Nani Talks - Episode 7.3 - The Line Studio: The Movement Was Real, The Finish Was Elite

Tim McCourt reveals the reality of the Gorillaz contract where the team had to redo the animation "finishing" five separate times, a process that redefined their entire studio workflow. Meanwhile, Wesley Louis is on a mission to fix how Black characters move in anime forever. In this exclusive episode of Nani Talks, we sit down with the founders of The Line Animation. Tim McCourt breaks down how the rigorous discipline of working with Gorillaz taught them lessons on quality control that they are now applying throughout the studio. We touch on how great and special the viral Hades 2 trailer is. Then, we go deep on culture. Wesley Louis opens up about The Mighty Grand Piton and his specific plan to improve the authenticity of Caribbean gestures in animation. He explains why standard anime movement isn't enough and how he is creating a new industry standard for how Black characters are portrayed on screen. #TheLineAnimation #WesleyLouis #TimMcCourt #BlackRepresentation #CaribbeanCulture #Gorillaz #Hades2 #AnimationProcess #NaniTalks #TheMightyGrandPiton #Naniverse • Like + Subscribe if you want more deep anime breakdowns. • Drop a comment we read and reply.
