More Tutorial Results
This next one is a lip syncing exercise. Obviously, I need more practice. Looknig at it now, it's her teeth that are the worst part. The top teeth should'nt move, the bottom ones should. Obviouldy I overlooked this fact in my hunger and exhaustion induced stupor. The sound was found on www.moviewavs.com, and is from Star Wars Episode One, I believe. The sound was used for educational purposes - this animation was made for a digital cell animation course at the Savannah College of Art and Design.
Proposal pt. 2
For the backgrounds of my animation, I would like to create a surreal interpretation of the storybook British countryside. I am looking at the works of artists such as Max Ernst and Salvador Dali for inspiration, as well as the contents of my own strange dreams. I feel that an overall surreal air will suit my little faerie tale well.
