Finally put these together. These are almost all of the assignments I turned in for my Animation Assisting (AKA Classical Animation Techniques) class this past semester. These are the final, clean versions of the animations; each animation went from keyframes (which we were given by the instructor) to roughs, to cleaned up. It was SO MUCH WORK YOU WOULDN'T BELIEVE IT!!!
For the roughs, we had to make sure everything was as perfect as we could make it, nothing should be shifting around or growing or shrinking (unless that's what it was supposed to do) there was a lot of shift-and-trace involved to keep the masses from misbehaving.
For the clean-up, each frame had to be lined using .5 and .3 mm mechanical pencils. Line weight had to be consistent in each frame, and we all used eraser shields when erasing to protect the work already done. It was intense, I tell you.
@00:10Hmmm... well they've made it into a required class for animators, but it's clean-up class more than anything. You don't really do much animation, the timing and spacing has already been done, you just need to 'not screw it up' in Coco's words. I'd recommend it purely on the fact that I learned a lot in that class, but it might not help you too much with your inbetweens sorry
@00:11It was intense her critiques made you feel pretty down, and she held us after class for at least half an hour, usually more. Sucked considering the class ended at 6:20 but we would get out at 6:45~7:10
I love Beth, I had her for Experimental Animation back in my first semester.
I heard she was intense. I've only seen her a few times, but I hear she's really good, just really harsh, but not to a point where it wasn't tolerable. Oh lord, was it at least fun?
Beth was my Intro to Animation instructor this past semester. She's awesome~
