Hey,
I enjoyed our practical lesson on 2D animation on tuesday, I have tried it once before in my first of college but it was a lot simpiler than creating the look of weight!
I always thought in 2D animation you needed a drawings one after the other to create a flow in the animation, I learnt that to create images such as speed, you don't, you actually need less drawings which was a surprise!.
I am happy with the way my animation came out but I might cut a few drawings out of the fall and create a more realistic arc because my heavy guy just looks like he floated sideways! still I'm pleased at my first attempt.
Watching Fantasia today brought back memories!! I used to love this film as a child and I still do today. When i was younger I obviously wasn't interested in the different styles of animation used throughout this film but I was surprised at how many there was, My favourite part of the film was the soundtrack line, I liked how a simple line was made into a character just by creating a nice image using sound, (the best part was when it did the percussion!)
cheers nat.

Thinking about the timing for animation is the most difficult part and you have dealt with these problems really well. The key to any movement is the anticipation. In this way you will create animation that 'lives' as opposed to 'moves'. Some good thoughts in this blog so keep it up.
Does anyone know if there are any concept artist/traditional 2d animation jobs available in Los Angeles? Just graduated college with major in studio art, and I'm looking for a job in this field.
