Serious Fun - Flip Book to Clay













We turned up in the morning as I had a stick figured flip book ready to present as it was the easiest thing for me to do being a stick figure and all.
But once the time came we didn't have to present it at all but we simply moved onto the next task at hand. Unfortunately I wasn't prepared as I didn't check the emails to find out that I needed clay for the day. So in a group with other people we went out to go buy ourselves some. So when we got back we started to make our characters and I offered my best attempt at it not having much sculpting talent personally. I managed to make my Kung-Fu Mouse character in the end however, tails, claws, whiskers and all. And without a camera on hand I resorted to my laptops webcam and managed to pull off a 2 second animation at 12 frames a second. I presented it without much comments coming through about it due to the simplicity of it in a bowing motion but we soon moved on to the afternoon lecture.


Our next job was to find two other members and create a ten second animation with all three characters so I came together with Daniel Lee and Jack Yang combining the Kung-Fu Mouse, Ninja eraser and Skeleton. We made what we needed from traffic lights to vehicles as we were doing a race animation and without a camera or anything on hand the decision was to come early in the morning and finish that up the next day.
