Over The Shoulder: James Sprite Part 2

In this second part of my James sprite over the shoulder I will be going over a lot more of the basic grunt work. Largely what I will be working at is just converting all the frames that I already had in my Doug sprite, but changing out the colors and patterns to match James' character design. This does however still involve more creative work in a few major places, especially around James' head. Much of this work is quite time consuming, so to make this better to sit through, most of the content is in fast forward, but you can still see the process and the work as it proceeds.

As a side note, I have been teaching myself video editing as I make this series, which has been an interesting experience. I have been using the free, open source video editor, Shotcut, to do the work and find it quite sufficient for my needs so far. Many of the basic processes are actually easy to do, but video editing is still a time consuming task that I stand to improve as I continue to practice. Learn something new everyday, right?

Well, let's get to it!
