For one Hand Drawn Animation assignment we were randomly given a verb and an adverb with which we designed a character and animated the action.
Can you guess my words? They were "Urgently" "Putting on socks". Although I'm not completely satisfied with my final animation, I did have a lot of fun with this character. I wanted to add an extra level of determination to her, and play around with the audience's expectation of what adverbs a little girl would normally represent.
Things I'd still like to improve:
-That landing in the beginning. I wanted it to look like a last second change in direction. She looks down and notices the sock so she slams her foot down and slides a bit to stop her momentum. It looks a bit strange now, she doesn't slide enough and her back leg stops a bit too abruptly.
