For this past week in  Animations we went over design principles. I want to now learn how to add style to my animation even though we have just begun learning how to animate. i found Exaggeration, which is when the details of the character for a frame or two are not in proportion to add emotion and mood of the character and scene. another technique is Secondary Action, it is when the character is committed to one action like walking that the then are also chewing gum at the same time. oh, one thing that frustrated me this week, and a bit of last week, is the flip book.
   hopefully this link works but its to an animated video of a group of gamers called the Game Grumps :https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yDVzKrItsU4 
    it holds alot of animation techniques. hope you like it

This week in animations we went over some history of animation and Harmony. Yesterday and Tuesday we began working on a house drawing to show what our style of drawing and ideas are. All of the projects that i saw in the class were fantastic.everyone was really creative. Me, i made an apocalyptic styled environment. I'm not really used to this way of working, on computer that is so it's a bit frustrating . I am definitely wanting to learn to use the drawing on the computer better, especially with the tablets. Also, during this week everyone has something particularly. Mine is not related to Animations but it was a song called "Lonely Day" by System of a Down. the song is actually fun to play so I'd advice listening to it. If you want tot listen to it, heres the link:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DnGdoEa1tPg
