Where Am I Part 2 (WITH PICTURES)

Here are some visuals to show where I am. These are some notes and thumbnail sketches for the 3 shots I have been working on this term. I plan to post the final animations here, but until then I hope that you enjoy this little sneak peek.

It's All About The Process

Hello and welcome! I've been meaning to start blogging for some time now and finally have the motivation to start. So without really knowing  how  to do that I'll start in the middle. About halfway through my first year of community college, I decided to pursue a degree in Fine Art. Art had always been an interest of mine but because I could not draw/paint like Michelangelo when I was twelve I thought I couldn't be an artist. I still cannot draw/paint like Michelangelo but I have come to discover two things that have helped me embrace the title of "artist". The first is that a lot of artists, if not most, cannot draw like the masters of the renaissance (which is why they are called masters and still studied today). The second is a more personal thought about what it means to be an artist and that is to place the importance on what is learned about yourself, the medium, and the craft while creating a piece of art rather than what it looks like at the end.

Upcomming Posts

During the current COVID lockdown, I'm finding some time to blog again and thought I should make a little check-in post to let you know what I'm working on and planning for the next couple of posts. I've decided to start getting into some of the animation principles. I mentioned a classification for the principles in a previous post  and decided to tackle the MOVEMENT principles first starting with "Timing and Spacing". This is a big one. I know. This term gets dropped a lot in critiques and feedback, and sometimes they are used as if they can be interchanged. In addition to giving a description of the principle, I hope to also explain what some of these terms are trying to describe and how to better understand them so that you can make the needed adjustments to achieve the type of look you want in your work. Hopefully, this next post will be out soon. Until then keep creating and thanks for reading! -Justin

Timing and Spacing Part 2: Application

 Alright, I'm really excited to get into this second part of Timing and Spacing. Hopefully, I will be able to apply the principles we defined in Part 1 in such a way that helps make these concepts start to click for you. After reading this post I encourage you to keep studying this principle and read what others have to say about it because once you start to grasp it your animations move to another level. ***EXPLANATORY CAMMA*** One last note before starting, since I'm going to try and move into application vs. definition I'll define these terms as I mean them here so that I don't have to pause to define them later. Key Drawing or Key = A drawing(2D) or frame (3D) that establishes when something will happen as well as extreme poses that help communicate the story. Breakdown(BD) = A drawing or frame that establishes how something transitions from one key to the next Inbetweens = The drawings or frames that guide the viewers' eye to and from Keys and BD's.
