Football AnimationJun 2023
An animation of a footballer running with a ball, created in the Intro to Animation course. The technique was rough and rotoscope-inspired, with each frame copied by observation without a light table. The uneven, hand-made quality highlights the texture and movement of the figure, and the deliberate, frame-by-frame process shaped the approach to later animations.The same approach was used in the final project for Illustration on a Timeline, an animated trailer for a festival instructing audiences to turn off their phones. The animation uses rotoscope with a limited color palette and simplified, almost raw characters. The earlier football experiment laid the groundwork for this method, favoring choppy, hand-drawn movement and a visible, crafted rhythm over polished smoothness.
