EVALUATION OF UNIT 5

This is a bit of a late post but I'll talk about this unit anyway. So, Animation. This unit was the one I was looking forward to from the beginning of the year. Bringing characters to life is what gives me great satisfaction. Suprisingly, when I started working on it, I realised I wasn't as energetic as I thought I would be. I have no idea why. Probably because I could feel the toll from the previous projects. There was so much drawing in this unit (the lightbox was killing me!). Despite the hard work of the process I believe the outcome is totally rewarding. I felt the need of  a big break after this but I think this work will be worth it for a 3 month summer break. For now it's work, and the strength not to get outside and enjoy this lovely current weather. On Friday after the crit, we had a brief talk about the next Unit, Commission. I am already anxious about it. It's basically everything we've been learning for so long in one project. Thankfully, the two extra weeks of the Easter break are included. I am looking forward to work on my last project but simultaneously feel quite anxious about it aswell. Oh well, time will show :) 

Final Animation of The Rapacious Refrigerator

After a lot of troubles and a lot of annnoying Premier days it's finally done! :D

The Art of The Rapacious Refrigerator

the art of THE RAPACIOUS REFRIGERATOR

Official Background

Simple and water coloured. Hope it works :)

The Fridge is eating! :D

CD Template Design for Unit 5

Meg's Standing up exercise

Test with really sketchy Frames

I never thought how cool an animation looks even if it's very sketchy. I think I am going to work like that from now on as it's a lot more helpful. Clearing up should be easier.

Testing scenes

I am glad this scene works. I had trouble with the turning so I had to record my self and then follow my own keyframes to do draw Wayne's ones. Now I am actually going to start animating my fridge! :D

Normal Walk Animation ( Take 2)

Redoing this bit but I am glad I went through it again as it looks so much better.

2nd Test! Wayne is moving! :D

I am excited to see him moving now and more motivated  to move on to the rest of the animation :)

Bowling Ball (with rolling)

1st test!! :D

This is quite a bad shot(condsidering the bad lighting and my hand appearing in  a frame) But it works! :D

Character Bible(Wayne and Francis)

Camera Exercise with Meg

My animation in an ordered board.

This is a small arrangement of my scenes and frames in case I get confused. So it's been worked out that me animation will last for about 54 seconds and my drawing will be around 648. Ugh..long long way to go.

W is Wayne and F. is Francis(the fridge)
