Overlap and Follow Through - The Flying Egg animation

I created 32 drawings to animate an egg flying through the air. For the animated .gif I captured 2 frames for every drawing and 6 frames for the last frame as a rest. Animating fabric has many challenges in trying to make the fabric flow from frame to frame. I tried to use what I learned from the flag waving animation to make the fabric flow.  I think it works for the  most part but I wish I had more squish at the beginning of the animation and more flow in the egg flying from the upper left down to the lower right (the fabric seems a little stiff there).

Enjoy!

Flag Waving Animation

This was a difficult set of drawing initially.  I really had to focus on the movement of the fabric in the animation to try and make it look like wind was moving the fabric.  I did 9 drawings and repeated each for a total of 18 frames in the animation.

Walk Cycle Drawings

Here is my walk cycle drawings.  I ended up doing three sets of drawings before  getting one that I was happy with.  My first drawing was to plot out the head movement and spacing of the drawings so that my figure would move across the page.  Working on a light table really helped keep the drawings consistent. The animation is on 2s.  It may work better as 1 drawing = 1 frame.
