My final animatic

Overall I think that this module has gone okay, I think that because I couldn't keep my mind made up on what type of scene that I was doing held me back as it made my start the actual animation process pretty late into the module which didn't help with the fact that I am a very novice animator and this is one of the first times that I have ever delved within the field of animation as this even though we are a at basic stage.

Even though I have struggled with some area's of this module I feel that I have learned a large amount about the animation field in general not just how it fits into the gaming side. I feel that learning about the basic principles of animation has helped me understand how to approach the task and what areas to look at next. One of the main things that I have learned about animation is to try and get as much feedback as you can when taking on an animation project as it helps to get different perspectives on your scene as even though you may think that for example a character may walk correctly another may see the minor detail that you have missed that might make your animation a whole lot better.

Concerning my own work I am happy with the way that the animation has turned out in the end and I hope that people can understand the joke as I have not just copied the scene but taken it out of the movie and put it into a whole other different scenario which I think helps the scene take a different direction as on its own its a very memorable able but boring scene.

I am planning to keep going with the scene at a later date to try and incorporate my skills that I may pick up in the future to try and make the best out of this scene to try and further my animating skills. I think that the lip syncing needs looking at, as in some areas it is not the best that it could be and also the movement towards the bottom half of the body as that is one of the areas that I struggled with.

Final animation completed with sound

Above shows the final animation without any sounds put in.

Animation is coming along nicely, the first bit a talking is pretty much there but after that it goes a little downhill. I am going to hopefully fix this problem and get the lipsyncing to a higher level.

Here is a gif of my scene currently.

Here is a redone version of my animatic as I had another idea of what to do with my scene, which I like more, I will add more frames and a close up angle in order to break up the scene but just wanted to get a quick prototype out to see what it will look like.
