Christmas Zoetrope Animation




My Zoetrope animation didn't turn out as well as I had hoped, I think it worked better as a gif, or running through on Dragon. And as we said, a darker background would've worked better so the white snowball would stand out.

Starting Zoetropes





In Meg's class today we started our ideas for our Zoetropes, we drew out a grid of 24 squares for the 24 frames and began to plan the breakdown of my animation. Mine was two people in the snow and then one throwing a snowball at the other. I made a quick storyboard and then drew each frame out on a separate piece of paper to load in to Dragon and test that it worked smoothly as an animation. Although there were only 22 drawings in my storyboard, I did fit another two in when I drew them out separately. It wasn't detailed at all, just basic sketches and once viewed as one running piece, I think it turned out quite well. So I will continue with this idea with better detail and colour for my final Zoetrope.
