third project

so i'm continuing to build the bathroom scene but already i'm bored with it and probably will build something new for next week. this time, i took out the sound and shortened everything (unfortunately the video goes on for about five seconds after my two second clip...oopsies). i added a toilet and a character. i'm unhappy how "slidey" everything looks. we talked about this in class in regards to "a scanner darkly" and i've encountered it before when using interpolation software (3d studio max, for example). i am going to work on fixing this sort of appearance in my future projects because i believe it gives my work an amateur feel that i want to move past.

i tried to make the woman in the bathtub look angry by throwing her arms up. i used two different segments for her arm parts and parented the lower part of the arm to the upper part. i used nested compositions AND easy ease out on the key frames for the arms.

right now i'm not super inspired by after effects. i like learning the program but it's nothing like flash, which i took to quickly and began to love. i think i might start working with animations i make in flash in after effects. all hypothetical projects of course.

  1. mixing them is good...Flash is better at character stuff, IMO
