Opening Scene
for my opening scene I began with the door opening followed with Eden and bubz frantically running through after their encounter with Jenkins.
here is the very beginning animation of the door swinging open. This was an unexpected struggle for me as I did not imagine it to be so difficult. I found it very interesting that the simple things we see everyday are sometimes the things we struggle with the most as we take it for granted due to it being something we so often. To help me with this task I took many images of my door opening in different stage so I could better understand it’s perspective and movement.
I am very happy with the outcome of this and feel as thought it is very successful and accurate
My First Run Cycle
For my first run cycle I did not make it easy for myself as I created a very difficult perspective and had both characters running face on. This was definitely a challenge and although I am happy I tried it I do believe in future u will use a different method to save time and possibly create a better outcome.
From looking at the final outcome here I believe bubz is too jumpy and not as clear as Eden’s animation. Bubz was another character I struggled with as he is much sharper and more stiff compared to Eden who is built up of much more circular simple shapes.
Preparation
To prepare for my animating I broke my characters down in to simple shapes to make it much easier to understand how they move therefore improving the accuracy and smoothness of my animation.
