Theme
Time
Method
I made an animation that a character’s expression changed at 1 second. I used 1/2 and 1/4 speed to show the expression and testing the different way to show the character with time.
Context

The resources gave me ideas of controlling the speed of time to testing my work and how to combine the expression to show the theme.
Response
After watching the video in the class that Max adjusted the video’s speed and it showed the different outcomes. Associated my studio work and what I have been doing, which I just improved my characters’ expression in my 2D animation. I wanted to test the different responses by adjusting the time. So, I listed the expression of the character at the 1 second and I wondered that if I slowed the speed, adjusting the time, what would happen? So, I tested the 1/2 and 1/4 speed respectively and the outcomes were very interesting. I just wanted to use the practice and think of this theme, time, to improve my studio work and concept, which can develop the narrative and give me another ways to think about how to show the unique scenes in my animation.
