That's some wicked neato stuff, I like lightning bolt 13 because it seems to dissipate more realistically than the others.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8waV48897o4 shows some ultra low-motion shots of lightning bolts, and it looks like they spread out, then flash bright, then just sort of thin out until they disappear.

I do have to say though, those bolts are pretty fluid which makes them appealing to watch.

very very stylish. i like that a lot.

yeah 13 my the only one i made "lightning" like. the rest are just vague interpretations of electricity, or a stylized twist on lightning.

that's a good practice. you might want to work on your timing a bit more. but i like that you gave it a feel of transferring force and mass on the bounce

Do you guys have any suggestions for things I could try to practice?

Animating the individual parts inside tweens is a nightmare, but the satisfaction once a sequence is done is worth it!
This character needs a name, too. He took me about 2 weeks, roughly, to animate.

Interesting style... is he going to be used for a flash or is he just a little animation test?

I want it to be a series. A good series, with a polish similar to Zeural's "Escape from Nevera". This all depends on how many I can get to help out, voice actors, sound/music producers. I'm being horribly ambitious, but all ideas start somewhere.

Think of a city similar to Saints Row 3 except with real consequences. You're not just some omnipotent being, there's villains in a city with no heroes. Their motivations all different, none of them being "to control the world/city". The chaos they create is just a given.

it appears to have a form change on the roll but its very well done. Animating strict geometric shapes tend to drive me nuts because even the smallest detail error can put it off.

Singing my song brother It's such a weird perspective but I'll go back in and take a look at it

Response to Animation Practice!? 2013-02-21 09:26:25


here's a breakdown of the steps i go through for the animation if anyone is interested. i've always been told i have a weird approach to things so i'll give insight on how i do it

Wow guys these are overwhelming. I'll post one more one as soon as I get some time. I'll try to maintain this thread alive but IĆ¢EUTMll need your help guys, I want to see what you guys come up with and remember its practice it doesn't have to be perfect.

Response to Animation Practice!? 2013-03-02 18:07:10


Woah, haven't checked up on this in forever, Great stuff guys! Found some old crap
FAIL
I tried some 3D looking stuff....It looks horrible. The base model/rig wasn't that good which is probably why I couldn't get myself to take my time and fix this.
Speaking of 2D I did some fire animation that just took too long and I lost interest. Needs more frames in between I know x(
FireAnt
Anyway, guys any tips on the 3D mess or the Fail Fire? Let me know ^___^
