anitagaughan:A few people asked for a step-by-step animation process. I’mnot too fond of doing these, as I’m still learning myself - but hopefullythis is kind of helpful?So here’s what I do for animation taken from a reference.1st image: The reference. (Taken from BeyondSlowMotion)The footage cut before the entire action of the dog jumping ended, so I’m taking info for the landing from a later clip.This action is all done straight ahead. So I’d put my keysdown one after the other, quite rough – until I get something like this (1st image)2nd Image: Next I’ll go back into it, arrange the keys apart to create some contrast in the timing, and rough it out a little bit more. Taking note of arcs etc…3rd Image: Then I would do my clean up. Still doing some adjustments on timing4th Image: I’d put in the colour and shadows, and would then export .png sequences of this from TVP.5th and final image: I’d bring these sequences into after effects, and add camera movement/lighting/colour adjusting etc… Then import video frames to layers in photoshop, and save as a .gif! :) (Lost a good bit of quality on the final gif..) <3 -- source link
