Shaun The Secretary episode 1

Just a lil thing I made for the opening, W.O.R.K. is the company in which Shaun is employed at. And at the end theres also one of the co-workers typing, havent added many sound effects yet tho and I need to touch up a few things.

What do you guys think?

Great drawing and I love Logan Whitehurst. The only thing I can knock is the animation, because you said it yourself, it's all tweens.

That brill, Purplecrayon!!!!!

Can't wait to see the whole thing done and dusted.

If you need any thing like voices or sound Fx done, all you have to do is ask.

Okay Monkeyboy, could you to try some voice acting. I need you to say, "Surprise". Added Part Look at the end and watch how Shaun does it so it has to be a very quick " Surprise". If its not too much trouble id also like to ask if you could do this in a few different voices because I dont know exactly how I want Shaun to sound yet. You could just post the Voice you make here if you want. Whenever your not busy it would be appreciated. :D

I fairly recently made this short animation, the first I made using properly drawn movement arcs. It's rather basic, but I haven't done much animation for a long time.

Nice animations Purple :D

But why do I think of Gobi's MoreLikeBlue episodes when I see that "Work" and "Work is fun" signs? :o

Job Place

Based on a true story. Actually one of the funnier moments of my life, despite the near concussion. :lol:



Well, I feel like telling the story now so here go's. Last year my Grandma pulled her little runner out to go for a walk during some crap-tacular weather. It's one of those little ones that you can fold under the bed (the on in the animation is over sized). I decided to give it a whirl while watching some TV. I began getting fancy and seeing how long I could teadder towards the edge until I had to jump. Well, one jump went awry (if you couldn't tell. lol) and I smacked my head right on the dial on the front. That threw the thing into full speed and I jumped up and started running like crazy to get to it. It was like a lab rat in a wheel but I flipped the dial up after about 2 seconds and a gear tread caught almost instantly so I slammed into the front of the machine, which then tottered back and threw me off (completely) where I proceeded to hit my head on the basement cement floor. It hurt and I had a migraine for about a week.

Now that I look at the animation it looks very choppy, I'm going to try and remake it and smooth it out some more.

It looks pretty good. I'd say move away from sticks as fast as you can though. They're good for messing around and learning the interface but not much beyond that. You can't really learn weight, secondary action, squash and stretch, construction, etc.

I may have this wrong, but this is the first time I have seen sheep use sticks. In every other of his animations he doesn't. At least, I think it was his animations...

Anyway, sticks aren't always bad. A well done stickman is better than a badly done fleshy squidgy human :D

I do animate outside of stick figures like Boogies but I practice motion mostly with stick figures, then trace over them with characters sometimes.

I just found a back up CD I made when I was 15 containing some of my very first animations. Yes, these are stick figures. lol. IIRC this is all Flash 4, the first flash I ever used.

Antiseal, I love! If you add some inbetween frames and made it a proper person, it would be God-Like!

It really reminds me of the old drunk guy on tekkan tag 4

I'm not so happy with this one but it was an experiment. Instead of drawing it FBF chronologically, I went through and added the key frames then went back and put fillers in between until I reached a level up timing I liked. I think it helped maintain my characters proportions but it took nearly twice as long and looks sub par to the third one I made (to me anyways). Still it was an interesting 3 hours.

94 Frames @ 12 FPS

Just wondering where you would find that sound clip otherwise. To tell you the truth, I didn't really get what was going on, but nice animation none the less.
