Here is the second animation that I’ve created in the awesome free (shareware — I donated so I suppose it’s not really free) animation tool Pencil (with some post-processing in Photoshop). It starts off with some sketched rotoscoping (rather than using a tweened vector a la Waking Life), and then continues with me transforming into a poorly drawn werewolf. It’s just 61 frames of animation, but it was quite time consuming to draw! I think if you visit the page on Youtube you can view it at 720p (I drew it natively at 1280×720). There’s no sound, and the video ends at 0:40 but for some reason it has another twenty seconds from a previous edit tacked onto the end. I’m not sure why. Anyway, here you go! I think it turned out quite well for being only the second animation that I’ve done using these methods. The next one will have an actual story I think.
