Optics…

A tiny animation showcasing an optic HC :3

Some TFP bots have apertures in their optics! So maybe they can adjust their vision’s depth of field.

Plus a fast doodle of what I mean:

I didn’t animate the light level changing, which I suppose would likely happen too? Anywho.

(Disclaimer, I don’t know nothin’ about cameras, photographers please spare me shshshsh)

this animatic inspired by chapter 15 of tf: exodus involving "My Goodbye" from EPIC the Musical i must confess, looking back at this animatic now there is a lot of diverging from the actual events of the book but this was more or less practice for me as well as an exploration of the emotions that were present here. (i'll have something else more accurate to chapter 15 of transformers exodus another day when i actually finish the boards for it!)

My Goodbye is a terribly dramatic falling out song between Odysseus and Athena and though it was hard for me to picture these two with the rest of the song (especially with Orion as Ody! he wouldn't call Megatron alone when he himself is more alone than Megatron) I thought that this particular segment was perfect for them:))

"one day, you'll hear what i'm saying / one day, you might understand." an accusation on orion's naivete and though looking back, i am aware that megatron was more or less thinking that orion was scheming against him, i think that these lines could still definitely apply to him because after all. orion doesn't even understand what he's done for megatronus to be so angry even though he sees what he's done as trying to help the cause that they both fight for.

these two frames are probably my two favorite frames from this animatic with the progression of orion's hesitance (and perhaps even anticipation) turning into fear as megatronus shadows over him. very much charged by that one segment in the book where orion turns back to megatron expecting approbation only to be met with megatron's anger.

the line "just a man" gritted through teeth and growled to orion's audial; it is something that's said to orion personally rather than shouted in anger like the rest of these words. probably the frame i like most next to the other two.

orion is looking towards megatronus, towards him /leaving/ and megatronus has his back turned from orion. this is his goodbye and he is not looking back.
