the laugh animation test

Well Y'all, First Year IS DONE! *crowd roaring*...

So, this was the last animation assignment.

The greatest thing I learned was how much preconception needs to be done before the final is reached. The first idea is rarely ever the best. And also GET STARTED ONCE THE WORK IS HANDED OUT. Thumbnail sketches are a great thing i will utilize next year. This leads to more fluid final designs, and less last minute rushing... that killed a lot of us.

hope I've given some insight into this dream I strive for the aspiring artist.

peace.

first demo reel material...

This is just a practice demo reel painting showing the process work I did for It. We had to use low quality video for the teacher's sake so it might look slow... peace!

the walk and trip cycle...

A walk cycle I did... I changed my character from the original, and I added a pan so it's more interesting... I tried a different kind of walk this time. One that they used a lot in the 1920's cartoons.
