2D - Water Balloon (Week 3)

-
In our 3rd week we have been tasked with using our teacher's feedback and advice, and improving our water balloon. My animation needs to have more inbetweens in it, especially after the first half of the video, as the balloon is quite jumpy and it strobes quite a lot. I also need to make sure my balloon's squash and stretch is more accurate - after the first bounce, the balloon doesn't squash nearly as much as it should, so I will also be changing that part.



We have also been tasked with creating an animation of a flour sack jumping, as you can make it seem very emotive and almost human. We went outside and created reference videos of ourselves jumping to help us work out the timing of our animation, and when each key frame should be on the
timeline.

For this week's assignment, we were tasked with drawing a piece of fruit and creating a character using the fruit's shape as a starting point. I decided to study a few different fruits (and vegetable) before landing on the banana, where I drew a drooping suited character who looks very miserable, and I really like how those came out, as I feel like you can tell their emotions from their body without much use of the face, which I need to improve more on. In the lesson we looked at perspective lines and how the horizon placement higher or lower can change how dramatic the landscape will look, for example when its lower on the frame, it will look much more dramatic, as it's closer to the floor.
