Case 02

In this case we were supposed to start animating our character. Me and me group showed each other what we had done so far, which was mostly just a character (although some had already started to animate).

The goal of the case was to have a; walk to left/right-animation, idle-animation and a jump-animation. As in Case 01, we discussed what problems we could face during the current case and how we could get fluid animation to give our character life.

I started messing around with Motion Tween, since it seemed to be the easiest for new-beginners. As I got to know the basics better, I could input some keyframes etc and have a more fluid and life-like animation to my character.

The walk-animation was the first to be finished:

Then I started with the idle-animation. It was a simple wink with the eye at first, but it evolved to something more complex:















Last one to be animated was the jump-animation. It looks kind of weird, but it's just the start of the jump:
















I didn't really face much problems with the animating. The only problem was to create a sprite, but with a little help from the groups supervisor I finally made a sprite.



In the next case we start programming. I have never done that, so it will be both challenging and knowledgeable.
