Sharing my work.

Hey. First time posting anything to the forum, but I've been reading and following here since I started using anime studio at the beginning of this year. To give something back, here are some clips of tests and/or rough sequences of a project I'm working on. Thanks so much for sharing your work, ideas and techniques.

Any feedback, critiques or questions are very welcome. And again, thanks to everyone for making this a great learning forum.

Also a random exercise I did tonight:

"So I said, Laura, that's not what a bat sounds like. That sounded more like a cat... maybe a 'bat-cat.'"

And Laura says, "I wonder what a "Bat-cat would look like..."

Great work! I really love the movement of the girl in your third video. Her arms have real weight to them, and all the little secondary animations add a great touch! Are you working on a project that ties all of these zombie-themed animations together?

[ddrake]

Thanks. Yeah, all the zombie stuff is tied together. It is for a (hopefully) episodic zombie comedy series that I had been writing with a friend about a group of highschoolers that are stuck in their school after a zombie apocalypse.

The unfortunate part is that when we decided we should turn this thing into an animated series, I hadn't had much experience animating. So, I've been crash-coursing my way through. I feel like I'm improving, but since most of my experience is coming from working on the actual project and it turned out to be such a large scope concept, it's taking much longer than I'd hoped (though probably not much longer than I expected), and every new thing I learn I'm inclined to try and go back to fix for all the stuff I've worked on previously.
