Animation workshop with Lizzie Hobbs!
P.S Thorfinn`s is in pencil and is of a man blowing up a wall with dynamite and mine is a very comical looking 'fingerprint' insect crawling around but if you blink you`ll miss them!!
Me and Thorfinn had a great afternoon at the flip book challenge workshop.
This is a simple but effective technique and one that I would consider using for college.
As an introduction to animation we used a 'zoetrope' a device that gives the illusion of movement.
It consists of a slitted drum, inside there is a strip of images and when the drum
is spinning the images appear to move!! Very cool!!
Next was the flip books, we had to draw a sequence of images across 24 pages,
this gave us a 'one' second time frame that took an hour to create! Pheww!
Lizzie and Mark then took photos of each frame and using computer technology
turned them into (very) short films!
