Going Digital

So last week, we were introduced to the program TV Paint. We did a bird's flightcycle and a couple of walkcycles, on realistic and by the book and one more cartoony. Here's the cartoony one, which I liked the best.

Animation in the New Year

Last week we had the first proper animation assignments of the year. Two fairly quick ones and a three-day test.

First, a tired headturn. Could also have chosen angry and shy, but that Monday morning 'tired' was the obvious choice.



Next, an assignment we only had the day to complete - no after school work. This was fun. Hope you'll notice I gave the character some attitude.



Then the test. Three days to get Danny to jump over a manhole.

Design 2 with Lawrence Marvit

Now in this course we had to make up for lost time from 'Design 1', so it was a busy week. Here are two of the week's assignments.



The themes were 'giant monster attacks ancient Greece' and 'space pirate fight'. Great fun.
