Hello everyone, here is this month's animation featuring Tae Takemi from Persona 5!

First of all, I think this one turned out quite well. I used a color palette and lighting angle that I don't often use and I'm glad I did. I really enjoyed making this one, and I hope you all enjoy it as well!

I also tried out incorporating the background into the animation a bit more, and that's also something that I also don't do that often. I added some camera shake to the first scene as if the scene is actually being viewed from a camera that's sat on the table they're using. I also tried to emphasize it a bit through the sound design. I also made the chair in the second scene move around a bit since I'm quite sure the weight of two adults pushing on it would make it move around quite a bit. I want to try incorporating effects like this more often, if I can make them work.

It was also suggested on the WIP post that I add in Tae's theme and I actually kinda liked the idea so I put together a soft piano cover of Butterfly Kiss. I've heard from some of the Twitter folk that they're not huge fans of BGM so if anyone wants me to include a version without it, just let me know.

Otherwise, that is all for now. I'm looking forward to drawing best girl from Monogatari so stay tuned for that!
