Third Semester Showreel

A summary of all my work from my third semester at the Animation Workshop.

A little late in uploading this, but I wanted to hear what my censor thought of it before I put it up on the blog.

As a matter of fact, she thought it was more than decent, and showed improvements as the reel went on, demonstrating understanding and execution of the principles I was supposed to be learning.

From now on the clips I upload will most probably be made in TVPaint, an animation software that we have been practicing with this week.

Between the two of us

Well, the two weeks of inbetweening is over now, and it was qute an experience.  After having drawn everything into the Aisling clip now, I have gotten a further understanding on animation.  No wonder inbetweeners would often become animators.  I learned alot from inbetweening this scene.

And below I have a collection of all the 23 drawings I drew to complete this assignment.  She was much easier to draw than Madame Medusa, though her stylistic design did cause some confusion for me.

This is a compilation of all the works I have done during the three weeks of animation basics at school.  I was surprised to find out that the essence of animation didn't lie in the complexity of the character moving, but rather about spacing and timing.  Obvious now, but for a guy who mostly likes to draw, and not having done a proper animation (dabbled with Flash a lot previously)I was genuinely amazed at how simple objects like balls could be given so much life just with the consideration of how far apart each drawing is spaced, and how long each drawing is seen.
