BSLIVE / Spiderman Grease Pencil Animation for AR Snapchat Lens
This is a break down of a little project, which was an accidental collaboration between me and Pierre Schiler 3D Artist.
Pierre basically made this Spiderman animation using Grease Pencil and Bone Animation in Blender.
* Spiderman Grease Pencil Tutorial by Pierre Schiller:
Pierre sent me the BLEND for study and remix as AR. At first I was thinking: ok maybe export as USDZ for use inside Reality Composer, but I don’t think that’s ideal for this kind of 2D layered animation. So I have few options: Spark AR, Snapchat Lens Studio or Adobe Aero.
Snapchat Lens Studio is my choice for this because it makes it super easy to import Animated PNG renders of this Spiderman animation. And I simply want Spidey to react based on user tap, which is possible via BEHAVIOUR Script from Snapchat.

I think this is a really fun AR creation for all 2D Animation Artists or 3D artists as well to try. I am a big fan of Grease Pencil animation and having the ability to layers the animation in Blender and having it as AR with interaction is huge!
