Wow!! This is lovely and your art style is so cute! I’m trying to get back into animating again, so it’s always cool to see others process on how they go about it
Mais c'est magnifique de fou 😭💕 trop cool de voir ton processus !! Merci de partager tout ça ! Franchement, c tellement smooth et doux à la fois J'adore !!!
This method is called pose to pose animation. It's helpful for character animation where precise movements are needed. Straight ahead animation is usually done on the loose bits like hair, clothing, special effects or other things that need to appear more fluid and spontaneous.
really nice ! It really help to learn the process. Would you mind to explain how you figure out how many inbetween you choose to use? Like how you think to say okay, I'll use this Numbers of frames?
umm its usually like i hit play and if it lacks smoothness, then i quickly sketch an inbetween and if it looks better i draw it, and like that until it's clean enough
For me it means the step where you edit the rough animation to redefine it to make it look more clear, basically the step between Rough animation and Clean up. I'm not sure of the actual definition though👀
If I remember correctly, I first imported the photo of the drawing, then edited brightness and contrast in order to make the drawings appear black on white. then I used the function "convert brightness into opacity" in order to transform the white into transparent. Then since the drawings were on the same layer (since they were taken in the same picture), I separated them by selecting them one by one (lasso tool), and copy and pasted them into new separated layers. I then put all the individual drawing layers into an animation folder, and used the Cell menu (right click on the timeline section) to set the timing of each drawing in the good order. I used displacement tool to move the drawing at the good location in the frame. I'm sorry that's a lot of steps but I hope it helps !
