How many frames do these average? I"m impressed by how the little "tetris" bars seem to be going so much faster than the bird boots.

the one with the grid has 10 frames. In that one, there are 10 separate bird frames, and only 4 different sidewalk flower frames (which doesn't line up, of course, so I ended up having to kind of fib with the sidewalk in the final two frames, hopefully unnoticeably)

not that anyone will notice, probably, but I'm taking the Barry Lutz website down, which means that that the images in roughly the middle 1/3 of this thread will be broken soon (the first 1/3 were on tinypic, the middle 1/3 on barrylutz, most recent 1/3 on tumblr).

I am p impressed that you made a plausible walking walk for a bird with no knees!
― Stop Non-Erotic Cabaret (Abbbottt), Saturday, 18 December 2010 04:34 (thirteen years ago) link
thanks, but tbh I always have trouble with the walking animation. I've tried several times, and for some reason I can only end up with a limping jog. Like this one I did a year or two ago, same deal:

Richard Williams says a quality walk is the heart of animation. Have you ever read The Animator's Survival Kit?

I haven't! *googles*
― hot lava hair (Z S), Saturday, 18 December 2010 04:58 (thirteen years ago) link
you mean with drawing on the tablet and the results showing up directly on the screen? it was kinda tough to get used to, but I bet it was a lot easier for me than real artists because I very rarely draw on a piece of paper. I'm almost always using a computer.
― hot lava hair (Z S), Saturday, 18 December 2010 05:03 (thirteen years ago) link
Yeah that.

The Animator's Survival Kit?
wow, 74 pages covering "the walk"! this looks awesome
― hot lava hair (Z S), Saturday, 18 December 2010 05:07 (thirteen years ago) link
xpost I think the most difficult part, so far, is in stopping a line, raising the stylus, and then trying to resume the line. sometimes it takes a few tries to make the connection look halfway smooth. though, again, since I suck at drawing in real life, that's a problem I have with pen and paper anyway
― hot lava hair (Z S), Saturday, 18 December 2010 05:09 (thirteen years ago) link
have you tried this animation software?http://www.plasticanimationpaper.dk/
i'd like to say it has made me into the next mike judge but uh... it hasn'ti think you'll have better luck, though.
― Philip Nunez, Saturday, 18 December 2010 05:19 (thirteen years ago) link
I took a look at it just now and might give it in a download soon. The last few things I've downloaded, though, have been epic disasters for me. Not necessarily because they weren't useful, but because I immediately gave up and opened up Photoshop as soon as I was confused by something. my willpower = -43
Meanwhile, I posted this the other day and for some reason this is more popular than creepy cats:

YOu can't really publish a book of gifs, so I'm just going to set back and wait for your eventual Adult Swim deal.

I wonder if you can make a "book of gifs" in iBook format or whatever . . . this stuff would look great on the iPad
― markers, Sunday, 19 December 2010 07:16 (thirteen years ago) link

actually the middle one is transparent, so I thought it would be cool because it might look neat on some people's bg's when they reblog, depending on what they have as their bg.
