Effects Animation - The Fallen Inbetween

So as most of you guys know that when animating there are a many MANY MANY drawings that never get used.
If you are not an artist, just know how agonizing it is to make a beautiful drawing (or entire sequences) that don't get used! Imagine pouring anywhere from 4-40 hours (no exaggeration) on drawings/shots only to throw it all away.

With my final effects animation video (seen in the post below), I wound up redrawing it almost 4 entire times over again. I was just NOT happy with the resulting motion. While the renderings were great and I was happy with it, animation is all about the motion.

If thats not right, it will always feel off.

Heres some that got thrown away over the semester:



















And once more the video: 

Effects Animation - Working on the Final

HI EVERYONE.

First off, so sorry I disappeared for so long, but between Thanksgiving, Finals, and now Christmas Break I have had little sleep and a lot of time away from the normal things. So get ready.. I am back.

As I fall back into life of sketching, painting, video games, work and tv shows I need to catch up on I will be showing you guys my upcoming animation and art I'm working on.

Here is the final of the effects animation I was working on the last couple weeks. Sadly with the little time I had to dedicate to it, I'm happy with how far I got it. Regardless that school is over for now, I plan to keep adding to this piece (not too much as I should move on to bigger and better animations from here), I want to be fully satisfied with it when I stop updating it.





Hope you all like!
