A full animation progression breakdown from Moana, showing how a single shot evolved from early 2D ideas to final rendered animation.

This marketing shot was created after production, starting with quick 2D sketches to pitch ideas to the directors, followed by blocking, iteration, and final polish.

The process includes:
- 2D planning and concept exploration
- Blocking and camera changes
- Animation refinement and acting updates
- Adding secondary characters and motion
- Final polish with sound, timing, and details

A great example of how animation ideas evolve through collaboration and iteration.
