Description This was my Mushu head turn assignment for my 2-D Character Animation Class with John Webber at SCAD. Overall, i guess I'm happy with it, though being my usual picky self, i could go back and fix tons of things. But this animation helped me with understanding how to keep a character still without feeling "frozen". So that was a major thing this helped me with. And with timing.

You're at SCAD? That's seriously awesome!! I've taken a few animation classes there and it's what helped me decide to go for it as a major. Love your work!!

Hi! I love your animation, and I kind of said that pretty late too. I'm trying to do animation too, but I'm more of a newbie so you probably know more techniques than I do.

Wow! I love the follow through of the nose dipping down after the turning of the head and the ear movements. I feel like there was a bit too much movement on the whiskers after he lifts his head up at the beginning but seriously, this is a fantastic animation!

Nice job. Its' funny because I remember John doing a scene like this in Mulan. AND he struggled on making it perfect, just like you. Keep it up.

oh wow! Thanks Mr. Bancroft! You're one of my inspirations, so I was so excited to see you comment on this! I'll have to ask Webber about that. And I definitely will keep at it!

You can also submit videos if you join the deviantART film thing. Easiest way to get them is via invitation. I got one from Waymond, I can give one to either of you and you give one to the other.

That's so weird. I can't believe I never knew that, and I practically live on this site!

mugiwaraJM In reply to Kat-vs-Art [2013-01-31 20:59:53 +0000 UTC]

I didn't either, I asked Waymond when he submitted his DigiCel thing and that's how I got my DigiCel and 2-D Production shorts on here in video form.

You're welcome! Let me know if either of you want me to use my one-time invite on you. I mentioned you can only invite one person if you're in deviantART film, right? If not...then I did now. XD

Kat-vs-Art In reply to mugiwaraJM [2013-01-31 21:06:44 +0000 UTC]

I don't think you did, but wow, just one? That kinda sucks...I don't really want you to waste your one invite on me, mostly because I don't think I'll be uploading any of my animations on dA so it wouldn't really be worth it.
