Animation Showreel Submission

Animation Showreel Final from Mailin Berg on Vimeo.

This is my finished Showreel for Friday!

Animation: Taste

The taste I chose for this exercise is nutella and the video describes the struggle of getting nutella off the spoon and how nice it tastes once you can eat it!

Meg's Animation: Motion Tween with pencil drawn line

I drew a line with the pencil tool, copied and applied it to a motion tween on a symbol to attach it to it.

Meg's Animation Class: Classic Tweening

For this Animation we created symbols and added classic tweens which automatically put the key frames in between which allows for quick animating. I have also played around with the colours, all the changes are intentional! :p

Meg's Animation Class: Motion Tweening

For this animation Meg asked us to create a symbol and add a motion tween to it.

Animation with Meg 13/02/2015

Today Meg asked us to create a bouncing ball in Flash and then we added another ball trailing after and then characteristics. After that we turned it into a graphic and created a classic tween that lets the character jump over the whole frame!

Flash Line Character Animation

Finished Blob Animation

This is my full blob animation complete with intro, obstacle and follow-through bushy tail! Apologies to Phil for making something cute again, I will try and better myself.

Flash Exercise

Today we are using Flash for the first time.

Blob Animation improved

Meg pointed out how I could improve my animation to make it look more real, so I took out lots of frames and changed the animation in a few parts and it turned out pretty well!
I have also started to add a squirrel tail to some of my key frames and will post that animation up when it's ready.

Blob Animation 2

This is the second part of my blob animation for Meg's class and it took me a long time to draw, but I'm happy with it. Let's see how the tail can add to it's flair!

Animation start of blob animation

This is the beginning of my little blob animation that we started last friday, I especially like the way his ears move!

Idea for animation

Today I scanned in the frames I have done for my Zeotrope animation so far and played them back at 24fps. The video starts with a present jumping into the frame, turning into a snowman who loses his head and picks it back up and turns back to the present which jumps out of the frame again. after seeing the loop animation a few times I am positive that there is too much action for one second so I will concentrate on the snowman scene and make sure that works well as a nice loop. If I have enough time I might do the present scene as a little bonus, as this was my first idea and I still quite like it, but I think the snowman is a more interesting animation!

Last weeks Animation!

Witch 001 01 from Mailin Berg on Vimeo.

I had so much fun creating this even though it's very fast and we all tried to be director so the story line is a bit... confused. What was the technique called again?

Animation homework: Ping Pong Ball

pingpong 001 02 (Converted) from Mailin Berg on Vimeo.

Practice in timing, it has gone wrong a little as the ball doesn't behave normally towards the end but I can only try and learn from it! Was fun to create though plus I'm slowly getting better at Dragon (with Vlad's help :D).

Videos from our Animation lessons, group 1 and 2

This video was  created in a small group with Tumo, Emma and me. We had 10 spaces to create a quick loop animation and then we tested it on this "teacup" and it worked well!

Sorry for the shaky camera! This is the whole video of group 1 and 2, the task was to make a quick drawing of the person right of me, then I copied the drawing that showed myself and had 10 frames in between to fill with a transformation, which resulted in a giant loop of faces!
