My first Flash Animation!!!

Ok, here goes..... Special thanks to Chris Georgenes

AHHH!!!

...now that Ive got your attention, follow this link. I m having trouble constraining the phone properly to Moom's hand. It follows his hand, but its not actually in his hand. Any thoughts?

Damn, animation is hard!

Crap,

I just realized how much time Ive been wasting on a single 100-frame section of this test. What's worse is that I still about 400 frames left to do in the next two days to stay on top of my deadline. Maybe 12 days per test was a too much....

Anyway, here's the entire test, with only the first quarter or so inbetweened.

And another one....

Ok, how 'bout now?

Next Pass

Ok, so Ive started on curves, with very little favoring yet. But tell me what you think :)

Wow,

OK, here's the start of another test. I say start because even tho istarted it a few months ago, today is the first day Ive worked on it since then. With that said, I have 12 days to get it done, inbetweens and all. Any critique is greatly appreciated.

Alrigh, alright

ok, i ve been a complete lame-o since my last post, but Im finally getting somewhere with inbetweening. Here's about the first 50 frames of my dialogue test.

Wow, its been a long time..

So I havent posted in a long while. College does that to ya, at least when you actually care about it. Which I did, although it took me ..1....4...7 years to figure out what I really wanted to do with the rest of my life. I want to animate. I want to bring life to drawings, computer models, Flash rigs, and more specifically, to share those creations with the world. Sounds noble, huh? I'd like to think that anything worth doing in life should have a noble cause, as well as being enjoyable.

With that said, it is my goal to do as many animation tests between now and this fall (3 months, for those keeping score) and get them done. My goal is to have a job, no, a career by then, well under way. In keeping with that goal, I will post (and I will) bits of drawings, tests, and all forms of inspiration in this blog. It will be my journal of things that affect me, make me laugh, sometimes even cry, with the hopes that I'll stay on track.Feel free to scold me if i dont ;)

A slight delay...

...but after a few weeks, Ive finally got something to show
for my animation test. Bear with me, though, as it is still in
its blocked out stages. Here goes...
