RyanandLink Posted August 15, 2017 Author Share Posted August 15, 2017 I tried my hand once again at ANIMATINO but this time it's alot more semi/hand-drawn lol. At first it wasn't going to be sadvenere but then I started listening to some sad TLOU music and my hand went one way... it's not super /effort but I like to think of little animations like these as a throwback to my flipnote studio days when I was really young (except that was literally stick figures lol.)

Mobbstar Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 Nice animation! Here, have some nitpicks from somebody who admittedly never successfully animated hand-drawn themself: When the head moves, so should the hand covering the mouth. Try to only ever have one focus point. In this case, I guess it would be [hand rises], [head], [other hand rises], [eyes]. To remove attention from the other things, I suggest you animate even sharper. For instance, the wings. Select key frames the viewer is meant to properly see (in this case only two) and make the transitions between those fast. In more detailed drawings, the details would be simplified as well. Fast, less detailed things generally take less attention than slow, complex ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you very much for the nitpicking! ;D with the focus system though, would it be bad even for say, the eyes to move while something else is animated? It might look weird for instance to have a facial expression after a limb movement that would bring more to that expression. And, you don't need to have cooked a food to know if it's bad 6 hours ago, minespatch said: What's she sad about? Something she might have seen in front of her. Something sinister. Somebody took the last cereal box from right under her nose at the store lol. Or she saw someone kill someone else from behind the bushes.

No, the viewer should just be able to look at one thing at a time, and ideally have that thing lead the viewers attention to the next thing. Think of it as a ball game. The ball has the attention of the viewer, then somebody catches it and runs for a while, before throwing it again... you might notice the other people running around all the time too, but the ball catches the viewer's attention. Okay, I'm not very good at explaining this... Somebody help me out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I think I get what you're saying, when the arm moves up (which is at that point finely animated) to the eyes, then the eyes take the finer animation from that point which would lead to the next thing that takes over the "animation lead". Anything else is less finely animated I believe is what you're saying which is a very valuable tip thank you Mobb B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanandLink Posted August 17, 2017 Author Share Posted August 17, 2017 "HEY HAHA GUYS CHECK WHAT I CAN DO" Spoiler "Knife bending! :D" While she can't do any big magic she does have access to moving objects* and decided to become shiv* master *objects with higher density cost more to move *can be done with any object which density and quantity does not outweigh her arcane reserves also more animation I love this this is fun C: Featuring breathing, leg/feet movement, hand/arm movement, wings, facial expression and dress physics(ish)! and flying knives of course I may or may not have put the new principles I have learned about animation from Mobb to use except that I didn't pay attention sorry ;c; I've been rewatching Avatar: The Last Airbender recently and thought about this as something cool to do, didn't expect to actually do it though since I always lose interest doing "longer" stuff, but I actually enjoyed making the whole thing which is awesome and I hope to be able to make more animations c: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mobbstar Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Woah, nice job! This looks like a turn-based RPG move. Her arms feel too long in some poses, might just be me being stupid, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RyanandLink Posted September 13, 2017 Author Share Posted September 13, 2017 Do you remember RPs?! I had such good times on these forums with them. Sadly there doesn't seem to be any on here anymore. I'm actually re-reading one right now, Maxwell's Playground by LadyD and Im having a nostalgia/awesome/cringe/great time trip lol. Anyways, some of you might remember in that RP Arca and Sylvia didn't really get along well, but the rp died so I like to think they eventually became awesome friends I drew Sylvia based on her haracter description. Hey Danny if you're still around hope you like her lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DragonMage156 Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 Fun fact: Idk if I revealed this already or not but during the RP, Danny sent me a PM wanted to ship my character, Red, with Sylvia. Bear in mind that was before I dived into mad shipping so I wasn't too sure at the time but now I'm all for it. But sadly, as you said, the RP is dead -_- along with all the others.
