Task 2 – Animating a Sequence (without maya)

For this task I recorded a video of a teenage male jumping. I proceeded to slow the video, decide which parts are key frames, then pause it to draw out all of the key poses within the sequence. I decided to draw these out traditionally as I do not have access to a platform that would allow me to draw digitally (due to Covid-19 and not being in college). I drew in freehand rather than the rotoscoping method as I was referring to my phone for the video I recorded, and drawing onto physical paper. (Rotoscoping is an animation technique where animators trace over motion picture footage to create a sequence that is typically more accurate than free-handing as it is a direct trace of motion).
