Rodney's Rabbit

Rodney's Rabbit- 3rd Year Sheridan College Action Analysis Project from Lisa Lanese on Vimeo.

This is my final project before the end of semester one! I worked over 100 hours on this project and I was extremely excited to see the result! This is the first finished animated piece I've made, and I can't wait to make more. I painted the background on Photoshop CS5.5 and animated the character traditionally and cleaned it up on Flipbook and Photoshop. I put the video together on After Effects:)
Creating this was so much fun, while doing this I realized why I'm studying animation, because bringing drawings to life is probably the best career a person can have. :D

Skinny Malinky Longlegs

Here are is a bunch of stuff that I have been working on for my Action Analysis animation project. I will be fully animating, cleaning up and colouring the section of my storyreel where the golfer whacks the rabbit across the green! I'm not going to be getting much sleep over the next few weeks....

Run like the WIND

Remember that horse and rider animation I did a few weeks ago? Well, I finally put a background on it and composited it in Adobe After Effects. The animation and background are still quite rough and I hope to clean them up in colour during the summer:) I really enjoyed doing this project, more to come in the future!

Enjoy!

Escaping the Forbidden Forest

My next project is a panned BG set in an age of medieval fantasy. I want it to have a very pointed, stylized appearance, different from what I normally draw:) This is the horse and rider I animated for the project and it will be traveling across a forbidden forest that I will design later this week :D I'm very excited to complete this and hopefully I will be able to add colour to it this summer! Enjoy!

BTW, sorry for the crappy quality, this is just a pencil test.

And We Keep on Animating..

This is my favourite animation out of the ones that I have done:) Animating is a lot of work and if you find that you have created something awesome or adorable it really makes your day. This is a pencil test and is by no means a finished piece :0
