Hmm... need to figure out how to make a preview loading bar for ready made swf from After Effects... (The file is 3MB)

I notice the loading on DA is not as smooth as it should have been. Watch on Youtube if it's too slow for you.

For my animation project. The colors are done in a modest way to save time.

After watching my own animation many times, there are many imperfections, but for the time being, I am happy with what I have so far.

I want to push for Sequence 4-5, but those need to be worked out with much higher attention to detail and there's much more to be corrected. bah.

Still need to go back to my flash and maya projects....


Though 2D animation is tedious when it comes to tweening , cleaning up and coloring.... I still prefer it's process over 3D so far. 3D animation think in the way of computer and architects... not normal artists.



Tools of Trade:
Pencils, animation paper, peg bar,
photoshop, corel painter 9, after effects CS3

and tons of study on books like:

Illusion of Life- Magic of Disney
Timing for Animation

Watching animation with slow 1/4 on DVD time after time
Throw 30'000 dollar into an art school to get you to work your ass off. ;D
