Animation Golden Oldies

I had some spare time today (trying to relax before my life becomes insanely busy with school) and I took all my old animations that I only had on VHS and digitized them into my computer. Most of them are from the my first term in the animation program. In fact, the first one in the top row, is my first attempt at animation. It was crude, poorly animated and the recording is unbelievable bad, but I still remember laughing uncontrollably and realized that animation is so accessible. I had avoided trying animation until that day because I was afraid that I couldn't do it. Later I would watch lectures from professional animators where they'd show their visually stunning films and then tell us that the set was made of painted cardboard and the characters where nothing more than wire and toilet paper.

I still kick myself everytime I think of it. I should have started sooner.

Anywho, I may get more of a kick out of these clips that you, because its cool to see how bad I was. I'm not saying that I am any good now, but I'm not as bad as I used to be. I apologize for the ones that are too long, too short, and poorly animated, which is pretty much all of them. So if you are bored out of your mind and have exhausted every possible option for fun things to do, watch a clip.

Comments

"Squirrel Hop" is awesome! You've captured the fluid motion of the animal (from the front paws, to the back paws, to the fluffy tail) extremely well. Would love to see a slowed down version of this.
