3 frame run + antic



Another test.... this time the run is made with 3 frames per leg or 6 frames for a complete cycle. I added a bit more travel to this run so there's more of it on screen to see. The antic is still in blocking, but the run is final, on the 1s.

4 drawing run + antic



I'm currently exploring the extremes of timing and speed. I've found that I tend to give my keys too much time when roughing out my timing, so I'm learning how much you can do with as few frames as possible. Richard Williams is, of course, my guide (big thanks!).

This is a run done with 4 frames for each leg in the cycle- 8 frames total for the cycle. Next up.... the 3 frame and 2 frame runs!!! =)

sigh of relief





















Wow!
I finally feel represented!
I finally feel at home in the country of my birth.
I no longer feel that I'm in hostile territory in this country.
I'm proud of my fellow citizens!

Thank you Mr. Obama, you give me hope.
