Parallax Animation

 In this lesson I learned how to use parallax animation to create different speeds of movement according to depth. It was actually one of the easier lessons. It turned out much better than I thought it would going in.I finished this lesson pretty quickly. I am most proud of the houses and trees on the bottom, they are pretty detailed. 

Talking Heads Part 1: Braver Than...

In this lesson I learned how to create a person lip syncing to a sound bite. It was tougher than I thought because some of the audio was very quick and hard to keep up with. It turned out better than I thought it would and the lip syncing is pretty solid throughout. It definitely took longer than I thought it would, it was difficult at times. I don't think i could have done it differently, there aren't many different techniques to use while practicing this type of animation. I'm proud of the project because of it 's funniness, it is enjoyable to watch.

My First REAL Flash Assignment

This Flash animation assignment taught me how to use tween animations, which are some of the more important aspects of animating on Flash. This assignment was surprisingly easy,  I completed with my hands tied behind my back. The final product matched the effort I put into it,  the completed product was full of energy but uninspired. I was a little lazy and inefficient at times, so this project took a little longer than it should have. Like all my other assignments, I have regrets but I would not change anything. I am most proud of the smiley face (My facial expressions are relegated  to blissful laughter or bitter scowls), so it was difficult to place the lips at the right angle.

Assignment Numero Uno: Flip Book

Creating a flip book is a very boring and inefficient, but easy way to animate a scene. My patience was tested as I basically copied the page before making slight adjustments. I expected it to take about an hour, and I was right. I hate flip books so I'm probably never doing this again. I would be more detailed, I kinda slacked off at the end. I'm most proud of the opening scene, where the pitcher knocks the batters head off with a fastball.
