Weight

created a short animation of how a person distributes weight using Harmony. I thought a person throwing a ball would be a good way to display the way people displaces their weight.

Dialogue

The objective of this project was to learn about animating dialogue. I photoshop to the illustrate the body parts of the fairy and after effects to puppet and animate. I really love Disney fairies since I was a child so I used the dialogue "faith, trust, and pixie dust" as well as illustrating the fairy.

Bouncing Ball After Effects

The objective of this assignment was to simulate the physics of a ball bouncing using after affects. I took inspiration from a pin ball machine to make the project look like something from a game. I find that after effects in easier to work with than harmony or using stop motion.

Rotoscope

The objective of this project was to practice rotoscoping using harmony. I chose the ballet of Swan Lake because I thought it would look cool to rotoscope and I'm happy with the end result.

Stop Motion

For this project I used stop motion to animate this clip with a camera. I wanted to use Dragonframe so that the project would look cleaner, but the stop motion lab was inaccessible, so I used a camera instead and sent the pictures into Premier. 

Character Walk Cycle

With an original character, I created a walk cycle from one end of the screen to the other. In the end I believe I have a better understanding of walk cycles with this assignment.

Bouncing Ball

For this assignment, the objective was to animate a bouncing ball using stop motion. I used Dragonframe to animate which is very useful to animate in 2D, for it helped kept the animation clean and from shifting. I wanted the animation to look like a planet fell from its string that was holding it up.
