Description Not sure if I've mentioned this too many times already, but I recently made the step from student animator to working freelance animator. While I love animation, sometimes doing it for work sucks the fun out of it, so I thought I'd do a quick little looping thing for fun and upload it here. Emma's fingers slide a bit, but I like how the thumb and the hand flick turned out. Let me know what you think.

Hand-drawn animation in Toon Boom Studio
Background & effects in After Effects
Crappy GIF conversion in Photoshop. Seriously, it's 2015. GIFs should look less pixelly than this by now.

Thanks! I thought it would be a cool idea to have the text kind of 'interact' with the sword rather than just sitting there. Glad you like it.

Good eye. The video I looked at to get the sword swing technique right had a curved sword in it, so some of that style probably came across when I went to draw it. There are also moments in the animation where it actually is curved, in a squash-and-stretch kind of way.

That's not safe. She shouldn't be swinging that sword around like that, people might get hurt.

goofymoNkey In reply to Instantlykawaiinut [2015-06-10 10:09:06 +0000 UTC]

Emma Swan doesn't do safe. Emma Swan does illogical recklessness. Swingin' swords and jumpin' off pirate ships for no reason: that's the Emma Swan way.

Do you mean Linkin Park? Not sure. It's certainly a possibility.

YES. And probably also for Zelda, though the sword there would be less swinging and more skyward. Β
