I am out today for a professional development session with other FADA teachers. Please see instructions below for your assignments.
Animation 1 - Periods 1, 2, 4, and 6:
Complete your the frog exercise today. Please have another student watch your work at the beginning of class and listen to their feedback. If you have time ask a second person look at it. The most common problem that occurs is that there is no slow in and slow out as the frog reaches the apex. It should be the same as a bouncing ball.
I'd like you to also think about the timing in your project. Make sure the speed of the frog feels natural. This means you should also pay attention to pauses in the action. There should be a pause at the end of the anticipation movement, before the jump starts.
Animation 2 - Period 3:
Please continue to work on character model sheets and revising storyboards. I want to start working on animatics next week! Use your time wisely.
