emo animation blocking video



I finished the blocking a week ago and decided to try and see if it will upload, and it did. yay. Hopefully it will not error when it plays. Double clicking on it will enlarge it lol like usual XD

Anyhow blocking is just posing and timing the animation. It is supposed to be choppy lol

lol I'm feeling a little under the weather, but it will pass. Hopefully it doesn't affect me too much, because I have work to do! dun dun dun lol

my deviantart account

http://cenoz0ic-girl.deviantart.com

I've had this account for... 5 years, which were since my high school days, where I used to use my mouse to draw with instead of a real tablet lol XD I like my deviantart account, because I worked on artwork when there was school and when it was a holiday, and some artwork that I did for fun helped me with my portfolio!

My deviantart account is very anime driven. I draw realism but I don't post those online. They're in pencil and very smudgy on the scanner. XD

I found this turtle rig, and it looked cute so I did some poses to see how it moved.
The rig is hard to animate by the way it was set up because the limbs can be stretched so it is paper thin. lol But perhaps I'm trying to pose it in ways it's not built for? XD It would be nice if it can hide in its' shell.

Anyhow I was just experimenting. lol This rig can be found here

lipsync: idea sketches

I'm doing an animation for my independent project. :3

The audio clip I found was Simon Cowell saying "I'm trying to think of something pleasant to say...and I can't" and I drew some sketches of possible scenarios for the lipsync.

An emo kid gets a pink cake by his loving parents on his birthday.


(Don't get emo. It's only a sketch! :D )

Here's another scenario.

A man is sitting on a bench, and then a crazy bird lands on his shoulder and proceeds with singing out-of-tune. *sqawwwwk*sqawwwk*


This is the other audio clip I wanted to do, from Bruce Almighty when the reporter Evan Baxter goes "I lika do...da cha cha." The instructors felt that the ideas for one of these were funny, but the ideas overall was also generic, so then the instructors opted for the second audio clip (above), over this one.

And therefore, after all these sketches, I chose to do the scenario with the emo kid :3 Dun dun dun.... But I need to change a few dozen things. lol
