Pose to Pose

Moving on from flip books we looked at pose to pose animation, creating key poses and then 'inbetweening' them in intermediate frames. My first animation is very similar to my first flip book animation, again demonstrating the principle of squash and stretch. My second animation of a pendulum however was slightly harder due to the requirement of maintaining it one second per swing at 12 frames per second, meaning planning the position of the pendulum each frame was essential.

(Also a computer is a pretty effective alternative to using a lightbox)
