In this short film titled "Animando", we watch Brazilian artist Marcos Magalhães bring an animated figure to life on the drawing board. Using different materials and techniques, he manipulates his character to walk, jump and interact with his surroundings.
This whimsical film demonstrates a variety of animation techniques using the same character....some hand drawn, some not. The first example is a frame-by-frame hand drawn animation. This is the type of animation we'll be creating using Animation Shop. First we'll create some vector-drawn toons (in PSP) and then we'll create the different frames (layers) needed to make this type of animation.
Another type of animation is the one shown in the segment with the City background. This type of animation can be created with Anime Studio, which uses "bones" and separate body parts to create movement.
Claymation is also shown. Claymation is a form of stop-motion animation. We might get into that in the future, but first we'll start with the easy stuff! ;-)
Enjoy the movie!
