January Animation Practice - Ted on his Hoverchair

I thought this was posted on the blog, but I guess not? Oh well.
It's a good excuse to make another post.

In January, I created a short looping animation of Ted, which I know y'all have met already. I was getting a bit obsessed with the character at the time so I wanted to do a short simple looping animation of him riding on his hoverchair.
If you want, go ahead and right click on the video itself and then select "loop."
This was actually finished and posted on time during the month of January.

Alright, now I should really get back to starting March's animation practice.

February Animation Practice - Listening to Music

Hey! Sorry about the long gap from the last post! I hate have this place inactive for a long period of time! But you guys already know that.

Earlier this year, I said I wanted to do one short animation practice a month; I was serious about it this time around. I finished this late, but it's my animation practice for February.
It's Marilyn jamming out to music.
For this practice, I focused on figuring out how to animate the cartoon head rotating and moving as if it was a 3D object, and I wanted to do a bit of music syncing. The song I chose was OK Go's "Bright as Your Eyes."

I initially wanted to do the full body and do clean-up/color, but it was gonna take way more time than I thought. It doesn't help that I'm in limbo between school work and my dumb job.

Hope my next post won't be a month from now.


***It has come to my attention that I never posted the animation I did during January on the blog. I'll get on to that very soon!
