First Meeting of 2009

Welcome to the first meetings of 2009 everybody.

For the beginners we'll be starting with the Bouncing Ball. Go to the link and you'll see the layout and other instructions. HAVE FUN!

For the ones we had start last quarter, here's your stuff.
This is Mr. Bean. You will be using him in a lot of your animations so get to know him well. He will be the easiest character you will ever animate. Notice his basic shapes and use them when animating. The cross hairs he has help to make him look 3D, so I would suggest using those on EVERYTHING!



I tried to put the walk in as many ways as I could to help with your understanding. Mr. Bean will be walking in place, so make sure his head stays on the same lateral plane moving up and down. At the top are the individual drawings you will be doing, there are only 8 for this one. Remember to do keys first, and tweens next.

To the Advanced group! We will also be using Mr. Bean! Welcome back to the old days. He will be running through an obstacle course with at least 3 object he must interact with to get to where he wants to go. Use swings, ladders, balls and walls or whatever else you want him to bump into. Challenge yourself.

Everybody, enjoy yourselves.
~Chad, el Presidente
