So when she said there was no 3D help, was there photohelp? Like was she cutting up little bits of images and including? or was is all hand wrought? How in the hell did she find the time to do so on standard motion deadlines? 

It’s sick!!

 Hey Ron,

To answer your question, I use tons of bits from photo references; so yes “cutting up little bits of images.” I also draw and smudge by hand like a crazy person :)

There’s never enough time on motion deadlines, but lots of practice and a few late nights gets the job done.

Thanks very much for the compliments! 

Mara
