			<description><![CDATA[I frequently forget to shoot a clean plate of a shot where I need to do a ton of rig removals, and end up having to make a clean plate from bits and pieces of the actual animation.

On that same note there are often shots where I should shoot with double exposures one with and one without the character and rig to really make the removal quicker and easier and I just don't, I figure one frame at the end will do the trick and part way through I realize I might need to pull focus or something and just one clean plate won't cut it for rig removal.]]></description>

Ahhh yes especially with dark grey bricks, they're so reflective and it's really annoying :mad:]]></description>

was. So I created a rig for it that could attach to the base plate.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Me, oh gosh. I would say of course bumping the set and just delete the frames after the camera bump and copying the last frame.

Being lazy about moving characters when they talk.

Too lazy to clean off my table when I am done animating, but I just recently cleaned off my table. Lets see how long that lasts. :lol:]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I am sadly guilty of almost all the bad habits in this thread...
Apart from the ones already mentioned, one of my biggest problems is leaving sticky tack littering my sets, often after characters move. It just sort of trails behind them, and I don't feel like removing it.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[[quote=jasper]This has been happening to me recently: I'll catch minor mistakes in my animations and tell myself that I'll just fix it in post.[/quote]

Totally did this a few times on the film I'm working on right now. It's a product of having very limited time with my LEGO collection to film and as much time as I need to work on post, but I really don't like it. I also have a habit of focusing in to much on one aspect of a shot. Like one shot will have really nice composition, but the exposure will be off, then the next will be the other way around. Sort of a not seeing the forest for the trees kind of situation.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I think I'm guilty of all of these at one time or another, 
Another thing I do is forget to double check my camera settings leading to flicker, color shift, or worse. :( 
I just had to re-shoot a scene because I just set the exposure to the camera's meter without checking it, only to get into my software and find out that the higlights were completly blown out.]]></description>
