Kaiju Beat was a game pitch that KCAD students made with Underbite Games in Susan Bonner's Pro Studio course. Each student worked on a part of the pipeline. This is the final and shows the game characters attacking the city. Below are some of the concept and production art for Humongous Fungus, the mushroom character. See the site with more characters developed and rigged.
Kyle Smith - Render Humungous Fungus
(but do yours in Animate)
Capturing poses from your animation test will be the next project.
It is helpful to start with these poses and then make your tweens.
