Animations Part 2

Okays, I have updated the Vine and Water Animation. Vine is done. Water is 75% done. Still trying to figure it out how to add some details to it.

Also can you guys please check out my other animations that are done in my previous post. All in are my folder, in box.net under my week4 folder. I really want to make sure that I have everything right before I uploaded/move them in to milestone week4.

Reason why everything is bold?

Cause I ask everyone in my last post to comment on animations but nobody did! and I posted it at 1am this morning and all of the later post that followed mine.. everyone commented so.... and if you don't want a pissed off red-head on Tuesday please comment on one of my animations.

Thank and have a nice day.


Update - I have updated vines .. and switch them back to version 8 and smoothed it out, a lot. I have played around with the stars, hopefully it looks less bouncy. Unfortunately, the water will not make the deadline for today. But I am still working on it and hopefully I should get it done by the time I go to work at 5. If you guys want to put into the game for a placeholder... I will be keeping the names for the movie clips the same.

  1. Sorry about that Krissy.

    The vine looks alot like a pendulum it doesn't curve in the middle anymore which doesn't look natural.

    The splash looks good.

    I like the movement of the water but it seems so flat is there a way to get a nice balance between this water and your textured water? To have it completely without textures is kind of weird.

    Spikes and Sparks look good.

    The smoke looks alot better. If any changes were to be made to it I'd just say make it a little longer, but I'm not sure if it's necessary. I haven't seen this version of the smoke in game yet.

    For the leaves, leaf 1 has my vote. I don't know if both are meant to be used but if we could only choose one I'd say use number 1.

    That's all. Great work Krissy.
    The stars look good, I think you may want to clear everything else out of the flash file though, animator notes can be put in the blog.

  2. Leaf: I'm wondering if the leaf is too bright. Have you tried it with the new tree tops Todd made?

    Smoke, Spikes, and Sparks look good.

    Stars: They don't seem smooth. It's as if they are bouncing off an imaginary box.

    Vines: I agree about the unnatural straightness.

    Splash: Looks good.

    Water: It's a start. It does need more detail.

  3. I'm with Adrianna and think that the water, while it looks freakin' awesome, could use some texture? I don't really know how to implement a texture myself though. :(

    And the vines, while I do like the way it's bendy now and not just a 'flat' image, I miss the way the old one would bend as it swayed. Is there any way you could add that to the new one?

    Everything else looks great to me! But I do think that you should grab the leaf animation labeled '1', and put it on it's own separate file, without everything else on it.

  4. Hmmm, Tom and Shelby stole my thunder... My only suggestion for the vines would be more frames or some tweens. The movement seems very choppy compared to all of your other animations. Other than that, I dig the updates, good job!

  5. And we thought Shelby was the dangerous one.... Haha!

    I commented on your original post. I haven't been on the blog since I posted the scrolly fla.
