Pivot Free Runner

For a couple of weeks now we have been working on our Free Runner using pivot. At first I actually thought that it was going to be easy, very easy. Unfortunately, that was not the case and I found this assignment a little bit more harder then I thought. I did like working on pivot, it is very self explanatory and it was fun working on it. The only thing I did have problem with was making my stick figure look real and not having it look so stiff. I won't lie I still don't get the hang of making it look realistic, I guess I will have to practice more with it and find a way to make my pivots looks better. Over all it was a fun and challenging project. I can say I can improve my work but that will take time especially since I still have to get used to it. Hopefully you enjoy my first pivot project.

History Of Animation !

In this semester we will be working in class on animation. For the pass 2 days we have learned a little bit about the history of animation and how it all started. I have learned some new things and I am still amazed that they considered cave drawings as the beginning of animation. That I found very interesting,  because the images wouldn't move they were basically drawings. I do like the way that animation changed through out they years. I also found interesting the way that they made movies out of the early animations with the strip drawings, I believe that was the silent Era. It went from black and white with no sound at all to the black and white with sound effects with no voice over. My favorite animated cartoons from back then was Mickey mouse when it was in black and white. Disney started out with most of the animation such as Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck and much more. I am fascinated by the way that animation has made a big jump from the early Paleolithic cave paintings to the most modern animation today.
