“Cowtastrophe”
October 10, 2008
So our third project for the Experimental Animation was to animate a minimum of 4 seconds worth using paper cut-outs. I went a little too crazy and didn’t get to finish due to getting sick over the weekend, but I handed in my unfinished work.
Preparing for the animation was fun, but I only had 2 days to actually animate it and I’m not too happy with the end result, but I learned alot so that I’m happy about. Enjoy.
EDIT: Many people seem to believe the scene where the farmer runs across the field is done traditionally, but that’s not the case. It was done with the replacement technique. It’s 5 separate cut-outs of the farmer I kept exchanging and taking the picture.
I love how the cow’s eyes follow the grass as it floats up and the way they get sucked into the ship. Too cool!
