Principles of Animation
This midterm assignment was to create six three second animations depicting given principles of animation. The three second animations needed to be related to the artist's daily life, use the same three colors, and use abstract shapes. All of the animations had to then be replayed three times in a taxonomy. The inspiration for this project came from a malfunctioning ice dispenser in the student's kitchen. Ice was animated in abstract ways while staying true to the physical properties of ice.
Learning Outcomes:
How to create fluid animations in After Effects, animating text, and how to make a visually compelling animation with humor.
