This brief required me to produce a five to ten second animation that examines one of the following themes: surprise, lateness, love, hate, longing, happiness and fear. I choose to examine lateness, perhaps more literally as expected. My initial idea was to animation a character handing in something late and let the facial expressions capture the stress of being late. In terms of the twelve principles of animation, exaggeration, squash and stretch and anticipation are all fairly significant in capturing this stress.
(Very simple and rough ideas for the final animation)
Final animation: I intended to keep the animation simple not just because of the time restrictions but also to maintain focus on the characters expressions emphasising being late, however I feel I perhaps didn't elaborate on this idea as much as I could have.
Although I incorporated a few principles of animation such as arcs, easing in and easing out and secondary actions, I feel as if - similarly to my pixilation brief - I went off topic and didn't spend enough time developing and planning, leading to disappointing final pieces.
