When you pause it just right XD Sometimes I like to watch a new clip or trailer that comes out and press pause and play to see if I notice anything weird or cool or cute or whatever else. At first I thought her thumb was coming out of his finger, but now that I see the rest of her hand, and Donnie’s super bendy thumb, I think his two fingers are just bent backwards really weird!

Hey!! Look at that! I’m the animator that worked on this shot and what I did was called “smearing” with the fingers. Essentially I did exactly what you caught, bending the fingers backwards, which causes the feel of the motion to have a ‘snapping’ feel once April’s hand hits Don’s. Kudos to you, and anyone else that found this!

An Animation I started during my 2nd year at the Animation Workshop and I decided to continue. It was a good challenge and a pleasure to use those childhood characters !

1. Ah Fai was a chief animator for McDull’s animated features. He’s super cool. Ultimate senpai.

2. Previous post on breakdowns right here

Some thoughts on acceleration and force

I presented this in the order of how I slowly understood the trick of delivering force - first an abstract concept of impact taught by Ah Fai, then a more complicated discovery on the acceleration pattern, last back to a more abstract concept of breakdowns.

Like I’ve previously stressed, 2D animation is everything but one single approach. There’s no one rule that rules them all, but interchangeable ideas with math, or physics, or music, etc. There’s no “perfect” animation either, but what is perceived as organic and dynamic. E.g., using the Fibonacci numbers to animate didn’t bring me a perfect animation! On the other hand, a tiny change in the pattern could already make the feeling of force so much more powerful.

Not so much of a tutorial than a personal experience. I hope you find this interesting hahaha

*snaps fingers* THATS WHAT IT IS! I’ve always felt the difference but I’ve never been able to put my finger on it! Thanks so much for sharing :D

Breakdown / Accent / Arc

To thank for the support for our film so far, we are posting some notes on animating originally made for our animation assistants. Breakdown is a very crucial technique of animating. It is a guideline of how every action should be acted out. It involves a thinking process of “hmm, I want my character to move in this way particularly, because of the context/situation/emotion/thought… etc”

Last but not least, breakdowns are the playground for animators. If you find these notes useful, also check out our film We Have Plenty. It’s a 2D animated film created by the students of SCAD and RISD. Please support us on Kickstarter and help usspread the word! We will be back for more notes on animation!

This awesome hairstyle features super sekrit cat sitting pretty on the back of its wearer’s head. The neon blue kitty undercut belongs to a Russian Instagram user named Katichka and it was created by St. Petersburg-based hairdresser Aliya Askarova.
