Hey guys. There is no way you guys know me, because all your names aren't familiar... haha.

Here's a basic movement jump thingy. I think I did alright with this one:

And here's one I made about people with superpowers and stuff, still unfinished:

Please rate, critique... w.e it was back in the day.

Thanks,

No need to bump after one day of nobody posting.


Your movements are good, but a wee bit choppy in some areas, and your tweens are not very good to be honest. However, its better than I expected and it was entertaining. Good job and keep up the good work.

Thanks for the comment! Yeah, I haven't animated in quite a while.

Yes, the tweens are terrible :p. I would have done each limb frame-by-frame for the slow motion effect but that would take far too much time, so I decided to go for the budget route :)

Concerning the 'choppiness' I know what you're talking about. You probably noticed the 'excessive' blurring. I feel it adds a lot to the animation without the need for adding more frames. I intentionally double/triple frame frames with heavy blurring to put an emphasis on the motion. I believe it's a technique used by many animators.

Thanks for the comment! I'm glad you found it entertaining.

Well, it's pretty good actually but you're adding to much blur. Other than that i don't see any problem. Keep up the good work Omega!!! :D

I kinda like the blur.. reminds me of Miccools technique, although heavier. Movements could use some work though. Not bad!

Thanks for the comment! I was a big fan of Miccool's work a while ago.
