What?! Is that a new post? :O

Well, I keep forgetting to simply just post stuff, but thought I would put this up (with the new upcoming season in mind and everything)

I miss horseback riding so much

Trying to mix my Instagram and tumblr work, so I can post a bit more on both! Here’s a tryout of another fake comic panel, exploring the powers of digital technology with procreate. The light (and colors) are inspired of the work of @paticmak <3

I ended up finding the background characters much more interesting haha.. hope you like this one!

My first post with procreate <3 I love this program... And this podcast... a bit more realistic take on the main cast from Wolf 359. I have a bunch of more stylized sketches I hope to post soon, but these will do for now

Me and my roomies did this silly little thing for something called Loopdeloop... (people can submit anything animated as long as: 1) it loops 2) follows the selected theme, this time being “shoes”!) 

We even won at the screening in London yay

@louiebonbon did the storyboard, sound and edit, Ditte Wad did design, backgrounds and compositing while I did the animation ;)

#animation #2d animation #silly #loopdeloop #shoes #kinda blonde #yep that’s our “studio” name haha.. #tvpaint #fashion #trendy #funny #sweet #priorities in the right place #shine #spinning shoes in 3D are sooo much fun to animate #especially really detailed shoes #super fun #sparkle #anime style #stylized animation #simplified animation #simple animation #film #loop #shortfilm

Hey, your timing and spacing is insanely good; would you have any pointers about time charts? I seem to always fumble on those.

Thanks for the compliment! Warms my tiny heart...

I actually rarely use charts while I’m animating, as I always retime the whole thing back and fourth until the end. (As an example my Joker animation are closer to having 400-500 frames compared to the 300 in the rough not-very-updated charts)

The charts are often added later to help a cleanup artist and/or inbetweener figuring out the intended spacing for the moment.

However, they can be super handy to have as a tool on the side, and a good practice as to figure out the spacing between keys, so definitely try to use them. Just don’t worry about the numbers too much..

Tbh I often add them mainly because it looks nice... hehe... eeh. Though also for practical reasons.. of course.. ehm

My general advise is to overall keep your inbetweens and breakdowns CLOSE to the key. If you want to keep it snappy, favour the ease ins/outs close to the key drawing. A lot of new animators (me included) tend to have everything too smooth and floaty as they overanalize/explain the moment inbetween.. just keep it simple and snappy. That’s one advise at least ^^

Step though the animations you feel look nice and see how it works..
