Narrative: 2D Coral test

This was so fun to do, but it ate my whole evening, the animation was rushed but the actual potential of using 2D planes in our animation is there.

Animating a taste

I loved our last session with Meg. The taste I chose to animate is cappuccino, hope you guys like it :) I tried adding sound and edit it in premiere but it wouldn't let me for some reason :(

Motion and Classic tween

FSTS: 2d Animatic

Adobe Flash: Symbols and rotating birds

Todays exercise was really fun :)

Golf Ball take 2

Wasn't happy with the previous golf ball exercise, so here is an improved version :)

Golf Ball Animation

Here is my golf ball animation using Flash, it is just so quick, I love it :)

Introduction to Adobe Flash

Well we did a few very quick animations, it is really quick and easy :)

Character Blob Animation Part 3

After the feedback I received from Meg, I improved on the blob, added more frames and finished todays exercise by adding a scarf to my penguin-thingy :)

It is on vimeo, sorry about the lack of a direct video file but it's too big for blogger :)

Animating the blob Part 2

I think I did ok with this second exercise, however I still need to add a few more frames at the end as my character looks a bit limp :)

Designing and Animating the Blob

We had a lot of fun on Friday, designing a simple character (a blob) and animating it :)

At first my character looked a bit malicious (small eyes and a massive forehead) so I enlarged the eyes and made it slightly cuter. 

This is ho it looks in motion :)

Can't wait to see how it will look like with the added details throughout the term :)

Some initial sketches for Zoetrope #1

Obviously I didn't make that one, but #2 

Charcoal Animation

Finally got my hands on our version of the charcoal exercise we did with Meg. :)

Zoetrope idea #2

A quick gif of my second idea for a zoetrope :)

Zoetrope ideas

I got a few ideas down on paper for the final project, but decided on one very quickly (I thought I am extremely original by thinking about a running reindeer zoetrope, but then I saw it from the previous years and my dream of seeing Rudolph running was shattered)

So I decided I will use my face as a base and add something festive to it. Using the same method as in the morph animation I started with the first frame and then the last, and everything in between was drawn after that (I say drawn, but all I used was photoshop really).

Made a quick .gif (with a few missing frames sadly) based on my storyboard as an experiment. Will add more to it later on.

Woo Christmas is coming!

Pixelation animation

It was fun and we managed to do a lot for a short amount of time :)

Dragon induction

The animation we did (group 4) last friday. It was fun :) It was interesting to see how it all turned out.

Bouncing Ball animation

And here is the bouncing ball from last friday :) A bit short but the ball was big anyway.
