Frames

These are few of my 240 frames that I created, this scene is first person perspective scene of when my character is walking towards the window while it blows open with a strong force of wind. I drew in guides in pencil to help me keep to the  proportion of my created window and the level of where I would place the window its self. The only problem with how I have been drawing the frames is to do with the order of the way I decided to draw them and the equipment I had to used, I bought exactly 240 sheets of paper at A4 to and used up four of them leaving me short which meant later on when I got closer to finishing I would have to use another type of paper (animation paper) which involved a change of size and texture, my scanner was A4 so this involved cutting down the animation paper from A4 to A3 so it would fit. The second problem I faced was the designing of my character which I changed, I thought it would be better if I made my main character shape based to keep to proportion but the it did not work out because  the character first started of large but later on became even smaller as he moved across the page which was later pointed out to me but, this problem occurred in too many frames so it would mean I would need to start again and there was not enough time. Along with design errors my third problem was to do with running out of equipment to colour in my character, I used fine liners and ink pens but they began to run out half way through my frames  which left me to result to using a permanent, this left a mess.

If I was to redo this project again I would set me a target of doing a certain amount of frames a day e.g. 20, draw them up and them ink and colour them all in one day. This will be done everyday so when I reach my goal of having all my frames drawn up will not have to go through all of them colouring and inking from the beginning, because leaving this all to the end has caused me to take up a lot of my time when I could be getting on with the rest of the written work.
