So because I had nothing else to do this Winter break, I decided I'd start getting into animation! I had this really nice idea I was really into and I started working on it, up until I realized that I didn't know anything about animation. So, I thought I'd reel it back a bit and just do a quick animation of something.
That "quick" animation turned into about 7 days of working for about and hour or two each day, and learning about animation for another hour every day, and has manifested itself into the second long pool of barf you see above :D
This is the start of something beautiful. or at least, something slightly less atrocious than what's up there '___'
Things I learned
-this takes quite a while
like I said before, this takes forever, this was only 24 frames and I was animating on two's (if my phrasing is right)
-even though frames appear for a fraction of a second, details still matter
when I was doing certain things like the clumpy hair, I disregarded the necessity for consistency in abstract forms, but after watching it back during the later stages of production, I realized that structure in that kind of thing still matters. The hair is going ALL over the place :x
-there are a lot of "drawing the same thing slightly more to left" situations
especially when you want things to look like they're bouncing slightly from recoil or whatnot
Lemme know what you think!
