ASSESSMENT 11: Walk Cycle (Digital)

I am currently working on getting the hang of digital animation on Krita, here are a couple of very simple walking tests I have done to better conceptualize a walk cycle.

[mi4011cainmayadunne]

ASSESSSMENT 14: 4 Narratives (for 2 Animators)

NARRATIVE #1 FOR GITANJALI RAO

Concept: Matchboxes in the style of vintage Indian matchboxes seen in her short film ‘Printed Rainbow’. A lit match held in front of each box, the flame shiifting to resemble the subject of each illustrated box. each box is meant to illustrate an aspect of Indian culture.

NARRATIVE #2 FOR GITANJALI RAO

Concept: Rao painting over posters advertising an idealized india. the posters (initially blue) are painted over in her signature orange, each stroke revealing the india she knows. it ends with her realizing the blue of the posters has mingled with the orange of her paint, but she accepts, symbolizing her acceptance of the global perspective of her homeland in conjunction with the india she knows.

ASSESSMENT 08: Character Design

For this assessment, I created a character design for the protagonist of my narrative, Gitanjali Rao. Here are some of the reference pictures I used:

I tried to represent her most distinctive features in my style, particularly her face shape, downturned lashes, pronounced cupid's bow and the grey in her hair.

ASSESSMENT 02 : Gesture Drawing

LECTURER FEEDBACK: Focus more on form as well as posing for a more effective drawing.
