ItA - Coursework - Clumsy Goddess, by M. Jeantet

Well here’s the final thing I’ll be submitting. Since I didn’t have the time to animate everything I wanted to animate (but still have the minimum time required) and wanted the thing to make a bit of sense, I added the storyboards that were not animated to kinda understand what’s going on.

Eh, have to say, as much as it has flaws, I worked to my best effort and for a first semester trying to use Flash/Animate, I’m quite happy with the result x).

Enjoy !

ItA - Clumsy Goddess - SB18 - RunCycle Breakdown (Rough)

I’m almost done with what I had the time to animate (I have the minimum amount of seconds but since I had no real difficult animation except for the jump I’m in the state of mind that what I have doesn’t really count), and readying myself to do a quick runcycle for good practice and to have proper full body animation in the short. Stay tuned, video with audio coming on Monday at the latest ~

Bless be Richard Williams’ book “The Animator’s Survival Kit”, shame I only got it two days ago xD

ItA - Clumsy Goddess - Work In Progress - SB_38 - Close-up ‘Almost There’

While I’m busy working on other scenes and slowly appreciating Animate (WHO WOULD HAVE GUESSED, but hey, finally had the epiphany I was waiting for so I’m getting a better hang of it :D), I decided I’d post the audio-less close up of Kassie reaching into the air, ready to catch the Weather Control Lightning. The way I made the scenes I actually will end up putting that close up in Sony Vegas/Premiere rather than flash itself but it’s there.

Work in Progress posts, just because.

ItA - Clumsy Goddess - WIP - Animation Breakdown (Rough1) - SB36-40

Trying to see how animating this scene will work... Messy & sketchy as can be, but it helps xD! Will look at actual jump animations for improving this. And will most likely make use of Squash & Stretch for that one :) Background not final either, but want to keep all the refining near the end.

ItA - Clumsy Goddess - WIP - Introduction (SB_1-3)

Working away on Clumsy Goddess, roughs of the introduction/exposition (panels 1-3 of storyboards). Will need to polish everything up evidently, but getting a sense of what’s going to look like what :) Need to do actual animation though, so polishing & refining will come near the end. Just like adding music & sounds.

Clumsy Goddess_SB12-15_Rough-Week12 Five seconds (roughly) scene that was to be done for today. Unfortunately due to other coursework and repetitive low amount of sleep (none last night), I was not able to work on this as much as I wished. It is still very sketchy, the timing isn't superb, the tweens are not implemented, but it gives a basic idea of what happens. Refinements more than needed.
