weirdmageddon part 3
The GF fandom on February 15th
QUESTIONS!!!:
1. In the first picture, whose hands are those? One character has five fingers, the other appears to have four. The one with four figures looks like they’re wearing Mabel’s llama sweater. So most likely that would be either Mabel or Pacifica, (although neither of them are wearing that sweater in any other point in the trailer so??) but whose the other hand?
2. Why are these hands glowing when they touch????
3. Why is Mabel looking at that light like it’s important? Like it means something when it’s on? Does it mean something? (This question is the most insignificant, it’s the next question I’m worried about)
4. In that last picture, why don’t I see Stan anywhere???? Is he there and I just can’t find him? Or is he really not there?? If he’s not there…well why isn’t he there? Did anyone else notice that many of the images in this trailer were from the first two parts of Weirdmageddon, and that Stan wasn’t in any of the images that were from part 3? Should we be worried about this or am I over reacting?

hey, i just wanted to help clear things up about your GF recording post. that’s the usual way for feature animation, but with TV, voice recordings can happen after production on animation begins all the time. ideally they don’t, but sometimes they may decide to change a line at the last minute for clarity’s sake or because the studio requires a line to change for legal reasons (as an example). mouth moves on tv characters are also usually looser than in feature so it’s easier. hope this helps!
Oo, this is helpful! And very interesting! Thank you!

Ok..this post was made this morning. He JUST did his last recording session.
I’m definitely no expert in animation, but I do have an interest in it as a possible career choice for me, so at one point I looked up the animating process.
When I looked up the animating process, it said recording came before animating. It said that it’s easier to animate based on the voices than it is to voice based on the animation, if that makes sense. (I looked this up years ago so I don’t have link, sorry)
Of course, the Gravity Falls crew could have they’re own order of doing things,
but what if recording does come before the animating? Animating takes a long time, and there’s still other stuff that would need to be done with the episode too (putting in music, editing, things like that) in other words: it could be quite a while before we see the finale. I mean it could potentially be as long as that hiatus between season 1 and season 2.
I could be wrong. I hope I’m wrong. Please let me be wrong.
