Character Animation

For this animation, I used paper to animated my characters. The bird seed is uncooked quinoa stuck to tape. I planned out my animatic in flash and then I cut out each non-repeated pose that I needed for the animation. I had my camera mounted on a tripod shooting down at my scene, where I moved and placed the poses I needed for each shot. I then used Photoshop to clean up any images that needed it. Finally, I assembled all the images together in Flash, timed them out accordingly, and exported.

Here are some example of a few poses laid out together.

This is my workstation.
