A long time ago I used to use a program called Animagic for making gif files (digmon blinks and stuff, ahah), it was excellent, but it's not really anywhere online anymore.
Photoshop can't get an accurate frame rate, and even then I was still having trouble with it for some reason.
I ended up having to do it in Flash, but I couldn't really change the quality much. Oh well.
I'm glad I did this walk though, I've noticed a lot of mistakes and there was a lot of trial and error with the tail, but I think it'll help the next time around I do one. Would love to do a run of this guy, but I gotta start on a dialogue test.
that is really good. The attention to detail is brilliant!
ReplyDeletereally cool))) nice feeling of rotation!!)

lovely work here :)
ReplyDeleteHey no way! Were you working at Roughhouse with Paul Dutton? What did you do on it? I wonder if we will ever get to see it, seems its only gonna be released in France lol
ReplyDeleteAh sweet! No I was doing rough animation, and a tiny bit of clean up. But some of the other crew were doing clean up and inbetween. Yeh I heard there were like 8 companies involved or somethin crazzzzy like that
ReplyDeleteThank for the comments!
ReplyDeleteBrant, there's an "animation" window in photoshop. You can google it to find details, but basically, each level in your file can be set as a separate frame, and you can change the speed it plays at.
haha if I see the dvd out here or something Ill let you know! My friend saw it in the cinema in Paris - aparently its in 3D! Anyway nice to make contact with someone who worked on the same film from across the pond. Small world this animation malarky! Ill be back for more updates :D
