Assignment 2/21/17

Hello students,

I've come down with a cold and will not be at school today. Please follow the instructions below:

ANIMATION 1

I would like you to revise one of your comics from earlier in the year or create a new concept for an animated gif. In the next couple of weeks we will be starting the final project. The more ideas you have the better. If you've done the homonym, imitation, and no dialog comic consider doing something action oriented. Here is an example:

Look at the bottom left corner of the above image. I have a simple drawing of a guy skateboarding. If you were to turn it into an animated gif it might look something like this (below image). You might think that this project is too short but it would take a student about 20 hours to make this. You'll have a month to do the project which translates to about 20 hours.

So draw something that you could imagine being animated. Try out different ideas. The drawings do not need to be polished. A simple sketch is fine. Just make sure the idea is clear.

ANIMATION 2

Please work on the throw or jump kick assignments.

ANIMATION 3

I've read all the story outlines that everyone wrote on Friday. Very nice work! You guys are really getting the hang of the writing process. We'll talk more about the outlines when I get back. For now I'd like you to design another lego character. Almost all the stories submitted had a second character other than Thanos. Go ahead and create a concept for a minion, Ronin, or Loki or whomever is in your story. Use the template below. Don't forget to set the outline layer to MULTIPLY.
