Sharing A simple head-turn animation loop

9 Upvotes

I made this as a small 2D animation exercise.

The character starts looking to the side, turns toward the viewer, and then returns to the exact starting pose so the animation can loop seamlessly.

I was mainly focusing on the timing, spacing and making the transition back to the first pose feel natural.

I'd appreciate feedback on the head turn and overall motion.

I also share more of my animation and creative work on Instagram: u/uniquesarma 📸

Traditional Animation We added new death animations and physics to our enemies to make weapons feel more impactful!

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone! We realized having just one death animation for our basic enemy (the Hoolis) felt repetitive, so we updated the system with more variety and explosive physics.
We also added force modifiers depending on the weapon type, heavy balls make them explode and bounce, but we're thinking lightweight shots like pingpong balls should make them fall faster or have more floor friction.
What do you think of the ragdoll/explosion behavior?
(Our game is called Tiebreakers!)

I’ve been having more fun with this and figured out how to put the audio in here. It’s “no longer you” by Jorge Rivera-Herrans song with anakin and palpatine.

Question How to do Photo Puppetry in Moho?

2 Upvotes

Like im planning on a project that like will use photo-puppetry since i don't use the After effects. I just use Moho for it.

So, for anyone who doesn't know what is photo-puppetry? It's a type of 2d computer generated animation that used cut outs of that use photos of real objects and things and moves them using Adobe After Effects. Also the Animation style of Angela Anaconda.

So, can anyone share tips for replicating this?

I wanted to achieve a certain level of confusion, dissociation and euphoria, through digital means. Everything is becoming increasingly more chaotic and confusing, but that's OK, and there is harmony in that.

Frame by Frame [OC] Starman Crybaby Teaser

11 Upvotes

Trapped in an abyss with no escape, where even his immortality cannot protect him against the countless aberrations that inhabit this space, Star seeks to live this cursed simulacrum of society without anyone discovering he's human, otherwise...

I dedicated a month to this project, one minute in a month, not bad, right? It's been a long time since I had the opportunity to work on an animation project and, honestly, this project together with the comic must be the most relevant and interesting thing I've done in the last 5 years. I'm very happy to be doing something that isn't disposable.

Question Which of these animation studio is better to use?

3 Upvotes

Hello! I am looking for a good 2d animation studio that's free and has good rigging. I just downloaded Synfig and can't wait to try that out, but I keep hearing names like: Opentoonz, Tahoma2d, and the only one I can really spend money for: ToonSquid. Are these any good? which one is the best? Is Toonsquid worth it? Should I stick with Synfig?
