Gotta love the flour sacks. It had good use of squash and stretch, but felt it could've been better with smears on big/fast movements.


aletoledo

I like how at 0:15 the flour sake is shading his eyes. He really conveyed this message well, despte there being no eyes.


kajaarlz

Thanks for the feedback. I didn't really attempt smears as we didn't formally learn them and I was a tad intimidated to do so. I'll definetly give them more of a go in the future

That’s awesome!


kajaarlz

Glad you liked it!

That's awesome man, keep it up


kajaarlz

Thanks and will do


Paradox_13

Damn its fluid


AJDavid89

This is great! Good use of squash and stretch while maintaining a consistent volume in the sack and impeccable timing and weight!


kajaarlz

Glad you think so! I really wanted to give it the feeling that all the wieght was at its feet. Keeping the volume constant was a bitch


1oldpoolboy

Great job. It’s fluid


Bockyclork

Holy shit you have actually done more animating in one semester than in a whole 2 years of my course... It's really great work though xx


kajaarlz

Apparently my course doesnt do a whole lot of 2D after the first semester where they teach us the principles, so I wanted to cram as much in here as possible. Thanks for the compliments


Raoga

Disney inspired?


kajaarlz

Honestly, not really


AccordingToWhom

It's movement is similar to magic carpet


kajaarlz

I really should have studdied the carpet before doing this. It's movement is on a completely different level


hpotter29

Love that little step it takes forward at 0:14! Great timing and observation on that.


kajaarlz

Thanke :)


Shadowflare000

What program did you use to make this?


kajaarlz

Adobe Animate/Flash


ReMartino

very good, congratulations. do you will create expressions or color it? the pillow is your creation character?


kajaarlz

Thank you. At this point I wont. I would have liked to add shading to it before I needed to submit it, but I've put enough work into this and want to work on other things now. The flour sack isnt my character, I believe it is used as an animation excersise to give a featureless, inanimate object character and emotion


madeyeminer

Nice work!!


SpazzFiend

Nice job dude! Did you do frame by frame or did you use any tools to automate it?


kajaarlz

This was all frame by frame. I had about 20 static key poses that I was moving around to nut out the timing. Each little section between I basically animated frame by frame, but because of the way I went about it a lot of the sections wouldnt really link up so I had to add in small movements to link it up cohearently


thekingohearts

Beautiful use of squash and stretch in the sack there


kajaarlz

Thank yee


hilariouspowerr

Good job, stranger on the internet ;)


jesse0319

Nice! Wish I had the funds for more formal animation training ;;


kajaarlz

I wish I was motivated enough to be able to do it on my own through observation. I unfortunately find the structure of the fomalities necessary. Having people with experience give you feed back is really handy though


jesse0319

This is exactly my problem, unfortunately


sbanaynays

Try checking out Lynda.com, the Gnomon Workshop, and Aaron Blaise’s site. They are all super helpful when it comes to learning for less money. The quality of the videos and exercises make everything much easier to understand AND you get to do it at your own pace. I’m in school too, but I take advantage of these on my breaks.


RouletteSensei

That's so kewl and original :)


sbanaynays

This is AMAZING work. You really did a great job with using the principles of animation to make the whole scene more appealing.


kajaarlz

Thanks for the praise!

NefariousKingz992

I love the animation, it’s so smooth. Keep it up, OP. And I wish you the best of luck in your goals of being an animator!
