This is just a collection of all the posts of the order in which I developed my animation. It took all semester, but I’m super pleased with the results and watching it develop.

Who’s that Boy?

It’s finally done! It’s not perfect, but it’s mine and that is all that matters to me.

No camera work yet, but maybe someday

So this took a long time to make, probably due to the complexity of the design and motion, but I’m very proud with how it turned out with and the color scheme

I didn’t really know much about what to do aside from establish a few of the camera angles/how I planned to frame the animation at certain points of the piece.

I had shooting star playing in my head. it’s just a simple little star animation

 

This is not cleaned up by any means, but this is what I have for today.

 

This is the rough walk cycle for my character Rue, initially I wanted to have him sneaking and prowling around as if he were about to pounce, however I found that a little hard to do, and found difficulties to do it from the upright position. I instead to go give him a rather confident and bouncy swagger that was as cute as it was confident while hiding his true intentions.

I initially referenced this video before going my own way, but kept the long steps and strides from what I made.

Rue is a small vampire rabbit hybrid made through alchemy, he has trouble keeping his hunger under control yet are trying his best to not randomly attack people. I toyed with the idea of giving him a muzzle or having candy and stuff in his mouth as a way to keep him distracted. Despite his cute appearance he actually has a keen primal hunting instinct.

Walk Video reference

 

I went for a sort of “Stretched got into a really nice and comfortable position and stayed like that and took a nap” Very specific, but it’s cute and the flour is very happy to sleep and relax in it’s comfortable position
