Birdsby *ArtWithoutPrediction

Flash / Animations

Two short cutscenes of some birds.

Was fleshing out a very rapid animation of some birds, as seen in the intro, flying up from the pines. Wing cycle runs from 4 frames to 5 frames, depending on which bird sprite you're looking at.

Original wing cycle was a choppy 3 frames in the intro.

This looks fantastic. I am very slowly learning how to do animation and I think it's awesome that you post all your stuff here. Both as an inspiration and to see some of the methods and techniques other people are using. I cannot find many flash animations that are done in anime for fully animated styles on the web that are not really ugly, gaudy or commercials - so again, thanks.

~noobian Oct 25, 2004

cool....but u know puts me off??? the background.eeww i hate fake cloud effects.but the birds are YAAAAAAY!!!!

do u keep a timetable??? cos i'm supposed to finish one of my first animated movies this sunday and i have no control over what i'm doin. *waaa*

I try to keep to a schedule. I REALLY want to complete some of the cutscenes at the beginning of Kara and her father by the end of next week ... so I'm generating little tiny scenes like this to take up the time where they talk for quite a while. Some of them will be lip-synced, some of them will simply be at an angle where lip-syncing isn't required.

Do you mean by "no control" = no power to focus on a set end?

I hear you loud and clear ... I'm all over the f*cking place when it comes to animating this thing ... I'll eventually come to a time where I have a scene 80% done, and I'll go *groan* and sit down and finish the other 20% that I've been putting off.

Of course, this whole thing is going to take a year or more, anyway, no matter how fast I work on it.

What don't you like about the "fake" clouds? I sat there with an airbrush and digitally retouched the cloud filter for about 10 minutes ... and then I applied two transparent gradients and brightened the contrast until I got something I was happy with. It's not like it's just some effortless thing ... Of course, I could spend an hour drawing nothing but clouds, but why bother? The birds were the focus of the scene ...

Why, what do you use? Hand-painted clouds? Or are you really cheap, and you just use pictures of actual clouds? (Boo ... Disney and some animes do that ... God, that is SO cheap.)

~noobian Oct 25, 2004

why bother??? it looks beter....yes sum time i paint my own...cos i really really hate filters,i understand ur patience...cos u are doin it al by ureself...but..u sed ureself....it may take a year...so things can still be changed.

right now i'm getting the felling ur rushing..just so u can post here at dev...don't worry gurl hehehehe.....u don't have to post everything u do lol.

Another thing i've noticed.....u seem to be switching from realism,to toony...over and over.. *whatcha talking bout noob?** i mean,that footsteps in the snow...the snow looks real...then in another scenes running towards that robot..or even the intro to kara scene u use jus toon flat colours,no what i mean?? u need make up ur mind,cos that type of thing is frowned upon with the pros,i had a discussion with a disney animator once *i think he helped out with films such as tarzan and mulan* and he told me that exact thing.

now...as for u...u never told me what exactly u dream job anyway...are u gunna continue with flash...or do the real thing????

LOL!!! i sounded like a pro in that speech.......
