Animation+Assignment+1

=Ball Tutorial, Character Animation and Walking Tutorial =

==== Now that you've had a chance to animate a ball and show it in motion post some of what you did here. You will need to follow the directions below for getting the animations into your own directory to paste into the wiki. Build an iMovie file that includes all three of your animations. (If you didn't animate your character that is ok) Once you've saved the iMovie file then export it as a quicktime movie and save this version to your directory. This will be the version you post below. Please comment on the each assignment. What was most useful about doing this? What was most difficult? How successful do you feel you were? Which of the 12 principles of animation did you employ and how? With the character animation what do you think you need to continue and improve your character? Is this a character that has potential to develop into something? Lastly watch the Rotoball 2008 video here and comment on how these students used the basic knowledge of a bouncing ball to develop an interesting animated piece. ====
