Study Task 13 - Combine the Twelve



For our final task we were asked to make an animation that combined the principles we've practised over the course of this module. I decided to explore a dragon character I had created in passing for my arcs task, only this time he had grown some and had a nose that was sensitive to dust. And had a tendency to sneeze fire. And shared a home with a mischievous fairy that his owner trapped in a pendulum.

Final animation

What worked well:
  • The principles of easing, exaggeration, anticipation, squash and stretch, follow through and overlap, and arcs
  • The choice of sound and synchronisation
  • Relatively simple design of the dragon.

What could be improved:
  • The length of the animation could've been cut shorter (although at the possible cost of a few principles of animation)
  • Secondary motion could have been shown better
  • The fairy in the pendulum could have been visualised better
  • Possibly could have added more colours to the dragon's design
  • Possibly could have added some indication of colour to the storyboard
  • Shading could have been added in more places in the final animation.
