Rhymes with Play - Animating at Klei Pt. 2: Animation Principles


Recommended Posts

Join our animation team on Twitch this Thursday, February 1st, where we will be breaking down some of the animation principles we follow when animating for our games. This week, we'll be focusing on anticipation, overshoot, and settle.

If you've ever wanted to try your hand at animation, join our stream and follow along with us! As always, the Rhymes with Play dev stream will be going live at 3:30 PM PST (11:30 PM UTC).

Where is it?

Use our handy new widget below to see when the stream goes live in your area:

That'd be the most adorable thing ever.  Unfortunately, I have a thing I have to be at right at exactly 4:30!  Dangit.  And no, I couldn't watch the livestream anyway in the background, that'd be kind of noticed and frowned upon.  : P 

(I'm also amused that the widget and also my server seem to ALWAYS think I'm in the next state over.  Well, at least the time zone's right.  XD)

If there's a kittykit pouncing a rabbit, Minespatch, you totally have to draw it.  Heck, even if there isn't.  I'm just picturing times in real life I was using the toaster, and suddenly my kitty found said toaster THE MOST FASCINATING THING IN THE WORLD...and the _jump_ when something finally did pop out of it!  I swear, I thought my second cat was gonna hit the ceiling.  XD

Aw shucks, thanks Klei. Love you long time :3

This was actually the first stream I watched in a long time, and I really enjoyed it! Seeing someone animate in real-time gives a lot of insight on its own, but the little tips and techniques they touched on were really good as well! I'd love to see even more of it in the future!
