Refined my animation for the ghost story of Okiku, based on feedback from Kate during my consultation meeting with her. Original draft animation can be found here: http://magistudio.net/work/animation-draft-ghost-story-okiku-studio-1-week-7
Fixes include:
- Have the base of the spine stay put as the ghost turns from left to right
- Have the hair flow out as she emerges from the well
- Fix the neck when the head comees forward
- Have the overall animation slightly blurry and vague, less detailed and defined edges
I found that I've got much better control of After Effects after refining this animation for the third (fourth?) time round. I'm feeling less scared of the tool, and more willing to seek solutions myself via online tutorials. The animation still isn't perfect, but it's getting there!
