New assignment - Animation

Brief is yet to be approved but essentially our next project is building upon what we learned in Animation Principles.

We have to create a 30 sec animation, about anything we want, but need to make it realistic. This means demonstrating that we understand how things move, arcs, how speed changes upon acceleration and deceleration and how momentum affects an object when it is stopped.

We are able to use Flash, After Effects, flick books, paper cuts, hand drawn frames, stop motion, in fact any medium we want so long as our animation is realistic looking.

I saw this film of aeroplanes taking off from an airport, condensed into 25 secs. It got my thoughts sparking off about my animation.
