00:30Hello, everyone.
00:38Something for everyone.
01:00Throughout the film, the actors had to perform to basically nothing.
01:06There was no character actually there.
01:08We'd rehearse the shot with a puppet, usually a stand-in stuffy,
01:13and then for the actual take, the actor would have to play against nothing.
01:17So here you're seeing Gina on the final pass of just kissing the air,
01:22and later that's where we'll put Stuart.
01:33After we've recreated the camera and the computer, we can then add Stuart in.
01:38This is a very simple model of Stuart for the animator to begin
01:42what are just basically character sketches,
01:45and these are key poses to give the director and Henry Anderson,
01:49the animation supervisor, a feeling of what his performance would be.
01:55And the gray-shaded object in the foreground is actually the sheet cover,
02:00and we have to model all those things to really give an animator
02:03the feel of the environment that they're putting Stuart in.
02:12A critical part of putting the mouse in any given scene
02:15is matching the lighting and compositing.
02:17That means making the mouse fit over and under the pieces of the scene
02:21that are appropriate.
02:22In this case, as you can see,
02:24we have Stuart's head moving out of shadow into light,
02:26and we have the light sources positioned so they reflect in his eye
02:29in a way that's appropriate to the light that's striking Gina in the bed around him.
02:33We also have Stuart behind the blanket in the foreground,
02:36and his hands move over the top of it.
02:38We distorted the surface of that blanket,
02:41gave it little dents in order to fit him in to the scene
02:43in a more realistic fashion.
