Lovely Accent – New Acting Test

Posted by Avner Engel in Animation, Flipbook

BEWARE; Rambling ahead! During my time in class 5 at Animation Mentor, I had a big dilemma about which audio clip I should animate. Since then a lot of time has passed and I took a long break from animating which helped me with recharging my batteries. When I decided it’s time to get back into my personal tests I still didn’t find a piece of audio that truly inspired me, that’s when I decided to dust off the notes of the planning I did and sit to work.

The Exploration Begins

Posted by Avner Engel in Animation, Flipbook

I looked at a fair bit of reference during the day and shortlisted the sequences of a gallop and a light run to start up with. I am fairly content with the initial result as this is the first time I actually flipbooked a quadruped. The light run definitely needs more attention and work on the ups and down, as well as the back limbs and the neck and head but overall I am relatively...
