!!!Animation Tests!!!

Posted by Starogre - March 23rd, 2010


I've made a couple animation tests this semester that I don't mind showing to the public. They have both given me a lot of confidence in my ability to do traditional animation because I feel like digital tools can be a crutch sometimes. They allow for more mistakes to be made and fixed very quickly. These add up though and take up time. I think it's good to try something every now and then that you can't really playback after you draw every frame. Moving and scaling entire drawings with the flick of a hotkey can also be a crutch at times. I'm not saying they aren't useful tools, I just think it's nice to use pencil and paper every now and then - I'm loving it so far!

This first one is cut-out paper images I printed from Photoshop and stop motioned under a camera.

This second one is a ball bounce test we had to do pencil drawn on paper (I added in splash effect afterwards).

More to come later!

thats awweomse!

woot ty

i really like that clock such a nice character.

thanks i love how his bells ontop help show his emotion

I love both of these animation tests. You've really grown as an artist. Nice.

thanks man! i appreciate it! :)

Stop motion is such a bitch, but your results came
out awesome! And the splash in the second video is
gorgeous. Well done.

thanks! I see you have posted some stuff too! nice morphs and pixelation :P stopmotion is a pain and so is handdrawn animation. its hard to see it as a whole until you play it back at the end of the animation process

nice work Starogre

thank you sir!

I liked the faux 3-d effect from the clock coming forward. Splashes were awesome too.

yea layering those buggers is a pain

Very cool man, I love the cutout style and colours of the first one. That splash is bootiful too!

hey thanks dood! much appreciation!

that splash was sexy

that is flattering coming from a man whos bringing sexy back

HORRIBLE ! I will not give you emotional support, but I admit that was excellent SPASH

plop

The ball bounce looked pretty good. keep it up.

thanks i am a noob in the world of paper animated special effects. i figure with water you straight ahead animate it cus i cant imagine doing many good keyframes for it
