11 second animation

At the end of the animation I decided to add the little alien like character to skip into the wall, and sync it with the final bits of the audio so it looked fairly decent, and I had referenced the slaming into the wall from the survival kit for animation, with cartoons using it such as looney toons (road runner) and family guy. When using this reference I learned that you can skip alot of frames from the current pose to the slam on the wall.

Overall I think that my animation isn't that good, and the reasons for this are that the looping on the animation wasn't done very well because I think more frames need to be added to make the animation look much better so its more smooth. My character aswell I don't was to good as it could of been but that is all down to character development so maybe more needed to be done.

Even though I like drawing this project has shown me that how difficult it is to do traditional animtion compared to cgi animation, becuase in traditional animation each frame has to be drawn and from a normal walk this will take 24 frames so 24 frames has to be drawn and in cgi you only have to apply the key poses which is 9.
