We have recently collaborated with PhilHealth on a 30-minute animated AVP regarding their progressive health services. PhilHealth offers affordable social healthinsurance and accessible quality health care for all Filipinos. Here, we would like to share a little bit of how the work in progress is executed.
First, we created tight pencil drawings on paper for each key frame. We sketched the in-between (successive frames between key frames) on a separate sheet. The drawings will be scanned and cleaned through Photoshop.
After the cleaning, the drawing is rendered and smoothed down using Adobe Illustrator. We create our own brushes and apply those for contrast and weight. This will serve as the line art for the key frame.
The line art will be colored through Photoshop. Although this is also possible through Adobe Illustrator, there are brush options that are imperative in the coloring process that can only be found in Photoshop.
After the colors are rendered into the key frame, we add background colors and texts on separate layers. Taking care to put the elements in folders within the layer panel, we then proceed to turn each element into transparent layered files before submitting them for post-production.

The PhilHealth AVP is currently on the post-production stage and is set to be launched on February 14, 2011.
