Stop Motion

In the stop motion workshop we mainly tried to get to grips with using the graphic tablets for drawing. This was a fun workshop and was very engaging and made me want to do more digital art. We focused on using Photoshop and its timeline which personally i didn't know photoshop could be used in this way which interested me.

In this attempt at stop motion i tried to do a simple walking animation, i attempted doing it from a birds eye view. When i finished it and looked at the animation it was very choppy due to the little amount of movement frames, to try solve this i added some more movements in a lower opacity under the main frame to look like motion blur. I then added some shrubbery to make it look like a scene passing. I think for some reason the green gradient i added underneath changes opacity throughout which annoying made the animation look EVEN MORE choppy. Maybe if i altered the frame rate it could look smoother, orrrr just make it look like he's super fast.
