2D Animation

I fell in love with animation. Head over heels! That was my first semester, and I couldn't get enough of it! As my teacher said, in the words of Phil Tippett (of Star Wars fame), "I was an animator, who would die to animate!"

I still love to do it, even though the focus of my course is now more on the whole 3D side of things. In fact I spend my summer breaks perfecting my timing, weight and poses. A pencil and a stack of paper, and watch things come to life between your fingers. That is pure magic!

Okay, that is all the romantic babble. Animation is still humblingly hard!

These clips are based on famous key frames from books, or just my own stuff altogether. Most of them run as cycles, which needs to be looped.

Angry Run - Determined run from a difficult perspective
A jump across a cliff
This guy didn't make the jump...
Old school Donald duck
Even older school!
A flickering flame - a new take on the wave principle
The Ghost and the Jelly - my first attempts at acting out emotions...


Back where you came from Now is a good time!
