A blog of my animation exercises.  Currently working through Animator Island's 51 Great Animation Exercises to Master. My syncsketch if anyone wants to give me the gift of a critique!: https://syncsketch.com/sketch/f28a583e6db7/

5. Character head turn with anticipation.

I had added some anticipation into my previous head turn, so I really wanted to try to exaggerate it in this one. I’m not sure how successful this one is overall, so I’ll probably be revisiting this at some point.

4. Simple character head turn.

I skipped 3 and overdid 4 instead.

2. Ball Bouncing across the screen

I felt like I was too heavy handed on the previous ball bounce I did, so I made another one trying to focus on weight.
