100 Days – tests
my first three tests for bolo’s fun walk cycle. (the bottom two were based on Preston Blair cycles.) i attempted a few in Flash but they have not been entirely successful! time to buckle down though! 4 legged walk cycle with 4 knees is something else…more very very soon!
Ricky and Bolo
i wanted the cleaned up turnaorunds to have their own post! these are my main characters for this animation. no to make them move…don’t forget to click for big view!
100 Days – More Pre Vis
Days 53 – 59
it’s too hard to figure out what happened on what days, so here’s been the last week of work (or at least what made the cut, i drew about 70 birds…). i’m going to quit boarding for now and hop into an animation test. i’m also going to redesign the pig and [...]
100 Days – Brainstorms and Scribbles
Day 41 – 52
these last some number of days have been a little tough to get much done since i was working! i made an effort to do something everyday, but in most cases it was very little. but brainstorming takes a lot of time too, and people always seem to discount that as part [...]
100 Days – Days 36 – 40
Day 36 – 38: 6/04/10 – 6/06/10
i could only work on this a tiny bit at a time – his face cracks me up, but the rest is sort of horrible! the tentacles don’t make any sense, and they should all be more draggy…i’ll consider if this is something i want to pursue, or just [...]
100 Days – Days 30-35
Day 30: 5/29/10
i added a more “extreme” squash and stretch to this bounce. i think he looks really energetic now…
Day 31: 5/30/10
i’m having a lot of fun playing with these silly octo children. i’m pleased with this loop, it’s simple, but i don’t need him to do much more than that
Day 32: 5/31/10
i’m making another [...]
100 Days – Days 27-29
Day 27: 5/26/10
squishy octo kid first pass
Day 28: 5/27/10
smooshin’ face. this one’s my favorite, i want to push it a little further still
Day 29: 5/28/10
the third octo child – i wanted to make sure all the actions would overlap more and not all move at once, but i separated them too much and it looks [...]
100 Days – Days 19 – 26
here’s another mega post! i’ll try to do three at a time again, but it almost takes as long to post all of this as it does to animate…
Days 19-20: 5/18/10 – 5/19/10
first full test.
Day 21: 5/20/10
i added a bunch of inbetweens on the landing, i was afraid it looked like he hurt his knees [...]
100 Days – Days 14 – 18
Day 14: 5/13/10
all i had time to do was vector my cricket in Flash.
Day 15: 5/14/10
my second pencil test – i tried playing with squash and stretch some. it’s hard to tell what to do straight ahead like this, so i think i will really nail my timing down in Flash.
Day 16: 5/15/10
i’m trying to [...]
100 Days – Days 10 – 13
i realize my blog is turning into one of those annoying early 90’s websites that are full of animated gifs, so i’m going to make a point of posting more sketches in between my animation posts. get it? anwyays, here’s the last 4 days:
Day 10: 5/09/10
tried some highs and lows, I think I put them [...]
