Flip Book

So it didn't turn out exactly how I wanted but I think it is pretty good for a first attempt. I came up with the geometric shape idea (I have loved these things since I was little) but it wasnt looking like I wanted it to so I switched concepts and went with a morphing of the circles thing. I used a technique that my mom taught me to copy an image with out drawing it since I cant draw. The video is also the first thing I did with this kind of program so I think that turned out well even though I probably made it harder then it had to be. I think the video says it is 4:25 because that was how long the song I used was before I cut it but it is really only like 21 seconds. I thought I was going to enjoy this project more then I did, but it got frustrating fast because it was going so slowly.

  2. I give you five stars for your flip book. What a great job you did. I loved the joggling dog and how his balls transformed into the ice cream? I wish I could put something like that in my book. Cool creation:)

  3. Your book was very neat and that is something I really like because I'm a neat freak. It connected pretty well and I loved the designs in the beginning how they grew and then disappeared again.

  4. I enjoyed the simplicity of your flip book in the beginning with the pen only design, and then when it turned into color it was a special treat for the viewer. Very interesting to watch it unfold.

  6. i liked your use of simple color. It didn't seem overpowering and didn't distract from the images.

  10. Very detailed designs were great. I found it a little hard to see the motion, but the juggling character was very cool.

  12. I know what you mean about the whole frustrating thing, it's not that I didn't enjoy it, but thinking about what your going to do and its like "ahh %$^$%^$ wth!!!!! and don't say you cant draw, you did a great job even if you used a certain technique to get your animations. But I thought yours was cute, and I'm a pattern freak so you got brownie points with me for the pattern. It was so nicely done I liked it, truly.
