What Is Your Favorite Part in the Whole Animation Process?

I don't know that I have one favorite part....it kinda all blends together for me.

If pressed though I'd have to say I enjoy the blocking of a shot as you get to work out your poses and experiment a bit but at a fast pace in sketches or sometimes on the rig itself.

Second, I like the polishing of a shot, where you get to add those little details and nuances that really bring something to life. Especially working on a lot of realistic characters as I do you could tweek and refine for days...or weeks... So sometimes its nice to do something more cartoony that is more stylized than realistic just to mix it up a bit.

Of course, this begs the question, what is your LEAST favorite part of the animation process? ;-)

My guess would be either the first splining pass (which is what most animators tend to say,) or the 15th time the director says to change it. :-)
