A friend asked me to join their animator-jam tribute to the recently deceased Akira Toriyama (the amazing creator of Dragon Ball and Dr. Slump). We all picked sections of the American "Rock the Dragon" DBZ opening titles to re-animate. It doesn't come out until next month but here's my little piece. I've always loved the insane scream that keeps playing throughout the song so I desperately wanted a shot that featured it. I'm really busy at the moment but I couldn't turn down a chance to be part of this thing! It was a really fun quick project too. Recreating the backgrounds was the only thing I didn't really love doing, but I'm happy enough with how they ended up. I've attached the FLA and the two final backgrounds!

Here's the info about the project if you want to know what to get hyped for! The rest of the animator lineup is amazing. https://twitter.com/SmallBuStudio/status/1775173912852038075

Haha thanks Brianne! I was thinking about just focusing on the running and doing the 'charging up' shot as a static pose like the original, but the thought of making him all wiggly and weird there was too tempting!
