During week 13 we were tasked with animating a running/walking man move across the screen.
To create this small animation, I used the program Adobe Animate. I used this to position and edit the animation by using the pen tool to angle and draw the ark of each leg and arm stride. Once I was done I created another layer to hold the body and another for the head.
To create the head, I used the sphere tool whilst shift-clicking to make the created object symmetrical. Afterwards, I began creating the body by using the square tool and painting over it to make the body look more smooth.
Then I began making a large amount of key-frames holding copies of the head and body at different positions.
Underneath each foot I created small shadows to show the ground underneath the moving character.
Once again the way I tracked the previous placements of the character was by using the 'onion' feature which allowed me to see what came before that frame (in blue) and what came after (if it was there it would be shown in green).
(Animation I created can be seen below)
Over all I believe that I did well on this assignment because I think that the animation I made flows well and realistically runs. However, if I could re-do this assignment I would make the legs of the character thinner because the size of them is more eye catching than the arms or upper body.
