Beach Time


This is bits and pieces of a conversation I heard on the bus. For the 'Where she at?' part was repeated twice.

And this is my life drawing from class.

Rough Pass

Rough Pass on Oct 11 Second Club from Michelle Taguchi on Vimeo.



Here's a rough pass of my 11 sec club animation. I still didn't add lip syncing or my walk cycle for the old man yet. I have an old man image as a place holder to where he should be in the animation. I didn't realize my little Grim Reaper has some really small steps. I'm going to take out quite a bit of frames in my animation as well. I have at least 20 frames on ones. I didn't get a chance to work on my little scene from Monday's excursion.

Partial Rough Pass



Here's what I have so far. I don't know why my video doesn't work on Youtube...but it works on Vimeo. I realized he started to shrink in the middle so I'm going to try and fix that now before I continue on with the animation.

That was simple...

I finally figured out why my animation was only in grey. I thought it was because the top layer was in a grey scale but the actual reason is kinda... simple. I just needed to switch the video option to one of the color options (256, thousand, million, million+). Well now I know. I think the grey scale one fits the scene more than the color. Both videos are the old file. I still didn't finish my discovery scene. Here's both of my discovery scenes, one in grey and the other color. Let me know which one you guys think is better.

Life Drawings and a Test



This is what I have so far. I think I'm going to make more changes to the keys. I didn't finish blocking the whole dialogue and I still have yet to animate the old man. Other than that, the animation looks ok so far.

Edit: I tried to upload my video several times but the animation never appears. I even tried posting it on Youtube. The file works fine on my computer so I don't know what's wrong with it.





Also, this is my very cheaply made Marquette. It's constructed out of kneaded eraser and part of a kabob stick.
