An animation Ive been working on towards a friends skate video. Animated in Toonboom and Edited together with Movie Maker. Sorry its so scruffy and theres a glitch, I cant get rid of any random lines or anything that pop up. Enjoi.

This lesson is all about creating depth by changing the size of an object. The simple rule is that the bigger the object, the closer it appears. I was a bit late this lesson and I'd love to work these three examples over a bit more, but I don't want you to have to wait too long. So here it is LESSO

Lesson 2 takes spacing and timing to the next level. Watch this movie carefully and you'll see how you can use spacing and timing to change the weight of an object. Also we have some design hints for giving your characters more emotion. Keep on Animating!

In lesson 1 you will learn how to make a basic shaded ball and then experiment with spacing and timing. Three exercises will test your animating prowess. Put your own twist on it and post your movie in the forum.

This took a couple of hours of work (since I like to procrastinate). Anyway I'm not sure how this is supposed to help anyone but i added a twist to logopai's take on L1 L3, but it's completely different from logopai's, And i was trying some camera angles

Here is another look at how spacing and timing works. Here I have tried to 'ghost' the movement of the ball so you can see how many frames are needed during slow movements. It isn't 100% complete. I'll see if I can scare up some more time to finish it up over the weekend.

Here is my 2nd submission for the animate 101 class. Spacing and Timing Lesson 1

exercise. try it out.

This is to show you the steps for a realistic walking movement. Just an extra note, on the final frame, try and fix everything up so the hands and feet are symmetrical so the next step can be started more easily. Jackzilla

Lil man 101, U rock!
