Anticipation - Stop Motion

Stop motion has been the most tedious form of animation, but what type of animation isn't tedious? I thought for once id be a friend to myself and do a very simple anticipation. The same i had planned for Maya but for this i knew i would need a bar sheet as the timing would be more tricking and i didn't have the wizard in Maya to do it for me.

I can appreciate the reason why stop mo is in the criteria for the first module, as it fully conveys the way animation works; timing and spacing. I have also found that the more frames you do, normally the better. The problem i had was i was too focused on making sure the blu tack wasn't visible in the shot, i think because of this the first tilt looks shaky. After looking a few other students animations they don't seem to care that its visible so i think ill care less that it was visible as i took up so much time hiding it.

Furthering into perspective

Im coming closer to realisation that storyboarding is a field that i want to keep exploring. This past semester we been tasked with a range of different mediums and techniuiqes which has been super challenging, requiring me to learn something new. The only problem I've had is that I get so tired from the research, I dont have the power to work and produce work I'm happy with. This is a minor problem as i know over time i'll become way more adpet and will have a much smoother workflow. I can say though that because of all this research time, I fallen back in love with drawing again. Maybe it has something to do with chris' life drawing classes but im actually drawing for fun again, and this is a feeling that i havent had for year. I'm trying drawing to become my new form of procrastination, because my mind just loves putting off work. This is a kind of 'procrastinion i did, when i should of been trying to do some modelling in maya i wanted to draw more s...

Animation Context

The first actual lecture of university was what i expected, a briefing of our first module. Most of the lecture consisted of Johnny beating the Gibbs' reflective cycle into our heads. I can see why the university wants us to utilize this type of reflection and I will definitely refer to it when I am first writing up my blogs, but in time i know that i will have each area of the cycle memorized, which can only help in my writing skills and well as my own self analysis. This module is on going throughout the year and we are tasked with writing a magazine article about an aspect of animation we are passionate about. Initially my intimidate thought was to look at the animation technique of One Punch Man as it i know it is a particularly difficult style of animation and i captures movement and speed so vividly. I do believe i should do some wide ranging research and look at other animation techniques that intrigue me.
