So, what did I do last summer.
Dear diary, I spent the summer at the Animation Bootcamp from the School of Motion. I have gained very valuable knowledge and experience and my animation skill has improved significantly.
This course lasted 12 weeks and I studied the principles of excellent animation and how to apply them in After Effects. So now I am not afraid of the graph editor and I can create a nice 2d animation.
Schooll of Motion Animation Bootcamp review
Week 1
The first week it was necessary to show what we are capable of and make a short animation of the logo.
Week 2
In the second week, we did a bit of frame-by-frame animation and began to study the speed graph.
Week 3
In the third week, we continued to study the speed graph and learned how to make the animation smooth.
Here I tried to make a different impression with the help of animation. In the first case, make a cheerful elastic and cheerful animation, in the second technical precise and mechanical.
Week 4
In the fourth week, we studied bounces and fluctuations. We made animations of different serving balls on different surfaces. It was a very useful experience.
Here, following the principle of follow-through animation, I animated the logo of noodles for the pool.
Week 5
In the fifth week, we studied squash and stretching. This week was difficult, the ping pong animation took a lot of effort. Here I used everything I learned timing, intervals, fluctuations, bounces, follow-through, squash and stretch.
Here I did the same exercise that I did at the beginning of the course, but with new knowledge of the principles of animation that I introduced in this course.
Week 6
Just rest or finish what you didn't have time to. Then it will be more difficult.
Week 7
This week we animated the logo using all the knowledge we gained.
The second exercise of the seventh week. This is an exercise for mastering animation principles such as Reinforcing Movement and Eye Trace.
Week 8
This week we break the rules and create an unconventional composition simulating frame-by-frame animation.
This is not the end
And finally, this is a one-minute fully animated video, accompanied by music and voiceover. This is the quintessence of my knowledge and skills in animation as well as my perseverance.
