day 34
Summary! Alec McDonald Media Arts: Block A 01/11/19 My independent project for Media arts 12 has been my first full venture into hand drawn animation. I was set and ready to do a music video of sorts and knew which of my characters I wanted to use for it. I also took way too big of a bite of the task to begin with. After Creating my Ref sheets for the characters, I moved onto figuring out the song, going through “The Red Queen” by SPG, “We need a Hero” by SPG, and finally “Thornmail” by Pentakill. At first, I wanted to do a full 2-and-a-half-minute long animation set to The Red Queen by Steam Powered Giraffe, which I honestly thought was an achievable thing for me, even though this is – after all – my first attempt at such a thing. I enjoyed getting the design down for James...
day 33
Creating a sort of bowing to a king expression, into a begging for help motion. From there I'll move it into a rotation shot towards the dead king who listens to the sobbing fool. As well did a head shot sketch.
Day 32
Back to walk cycles, but this time from a side perspective. As well as there is now a bit of actual scenery for this once around.
Day 31
Changed the song again, and scrapped a couple dozen frames, as I am going for a shorter animation over all, but at a higher quality for my own sanity.
Day 30
Doing the ENTIRE song is a mistake and way too much of a Bite to be Taking. I'm going to be at least halfing the amount og the song I'm going to "animate".
