Frenchie - Gosia Meyer

A story about a French Bulldog.

My second year final project submission for Uni! :)

Written, produced and animated by me: Gosia Meyer (aka milkyseaweed).

If you have a Frenchie, this is by no means an attack or judgement of you as an owner or of your morals! But we do have a responsibility as people to acknowledge when our wants infringe on other living being's needs :).

As a newbie. i started an ambitious project. it was a mess . I have failed . Then I watched bunch of tutorials and I saw how people make the motion first . I decided to learn some principals of animation and did this study.

breakdown of a scene from my music video (part 2)

I made a music video for my song using krita, then edited it in davinci, the video took me a whole month but it's live on [YouTube](https://youtu.be/3\_OU6yYRGZk) now. Let me know if you have any questions regarding animation about any one of those scenes, I'll be happy to help <3

Which of these compositing options works better?

Trying some simple compositing with some online tutorials, I'm not very experienced with After Effects so it's probably not very technically well-done, but regardless, which of the three results works better in your eyes? Any and all feedback appreciated!

2nd slide is with no compositing for reference. Please let me know if I've overdone it too, that's definitely useful information. I think it looked super dead before but I may have went too far, I can't tell.

How are these smooth 2D animations made? Any specific software/workflow?

I recently found this YouTube Shorts channel and really liked the animation style:
Baydar Films YouTube Shorts

I’m new to 2D animation and wanted to understand how animations like these are usually made.

  • Is this frame-by-frame animation or rigged/skeletal animation?
  • Are they using any specific software like Adobe Animate, Toon Boom, Spine, Moho, Blender Grease Pencil, etc.?
  • How do they make the movement look so smooth and expressive?
  • Any beginner-friendly workflow/tutorial recommendations for this type of animation?

Would really appreciate guidance from experienced animators 🙌

Just sharing how I animate some of the VFX frame-by-frame from my Sci Fi game

This is my frame-by-frame process behind the flame engulf effect plus how it looks in-game. I'm still finding myself not super happy with how effect animations turn out sometimes, I'm fine with how this looks though 😊

Face Turn Around- Critique

This is a 62 frame (originally 32) 2 frame per second turn around I did for practice. I tried my best to make sure the character looked consistent throughout and I would appreciate some nitpicking on how to make it better consistency-wise. To me, it looks great, but I've been staring at him for days by now so I could miss something a fresh pair of eyes may catch.

Feel free to pick at the hair. It was the element I had the most trouble with due to the asymmetry and keeping the strands consistent between frames. Also those sideburns. It was difficult to keep perspective in mind while maintaining their general shape.

Our AI Tool Flicker, now has a plugin made for Toon Boom!

You can now get your in-betweens sorted in less than a minute while keeping the authentic, hand-crafted feel of the animation intact. It works natively in Toon Boom and all you have to do is highlight your key's and Flicker does the rest.

Flicker only works for Toon Boom Advanced and Premium versions, and you can check it for free at flicker.bruceanimation.com

My hand-drawn narrative game is about a tech company promising eternal life. It felt more like fiction when I started making it.

A tease of my new (in-progress) 2D Animated Short Film - "Alvéolos"

After 20+ worldwide festival selections and some prizes with my latest 2D Animation short "Nuno", I felt that I had more things to say and other themes to approach.

"Alvéolos" is my new animated short-film, and i've been developing it for the past ~year.
It has been a long journey but i'm finally seeing things taking place and starting to be prepared to aim for our main objective: Funding. With funding we will be able to produce the film and actually make it all real.

The deadline is almost there, we are working our asses off so that Alvéolos lives true to it's potential.

I just really wanted to share this little teaser that we have ready for you guys, just a sneak-peak of what our film will look like.
I'm really thrilled to continue developing Alvéolos, and really excited to show you more stuff :D
