Sora's Gaze: Animation

hope the thunder didn't scare you XD

Don't get your hopes up yet, guys...

We're not there yet LOL. It's only a test. Is it apart of something bigger? maaaayyyybe.
yes this does happen later in the SleepOver comic, but since nothing's actually happening, it's not a spoiler I dunno if I can actually call this "Animation"

LOL at my straw rain, and bad animation.
Time taken: 1:30 ( it shows )

I was looking to test how it would go, if I drew some frames in flash, then transferred them over to PS to line and color, then put the whole thing together in Flash.

Well I learned a few things LOL.
-- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

1) Flash sucks ass when it comes to drawing. Then again, it is a vector based program, so I should have expected that. (my hats off to you :iconjohnsu: I dunno how you do it )

2) it's difficult to translate and clean up those lines in PS * I prefer my animation to be fluid

3) Flash does handle images from Photoshop well, though. Meaning I can keep high quality from PS in Flash when I compile all of the "frames"

4) Movie clips are handy as hell

5) flash can randomize certain effects if you know action script

After this experience, I've found that it IS very possible to do a more complex project by animating the old fashioned way:

If I drew my frames on actual paper (meaning I'd have more line quality control, thus equaling more fluid animation) , scan them in (dear god, the work), color and edit them in photoshop, and compile it into flash for final edits, preloader, to handle smaller loopable effects, plus sound and music.

I could realistically do a bigger project (or at the very least, a demo)

Of course if you guys know of a better way to make use of what I have, I'm all ears LOL. ( keep in mind I have CS 3, not CS 4 or 5 meaning no handy animation feature, and Image Ready would still act the same way that Flash would in this situation, only it's better)


TL;dr : I messed around in flash + photoshop, and found something useful for future animations.

Tools: Tablet, Photoshop CS 3, Flash

So cool! *thumbs up* After seeing this I pictured Riku walking up to Sora in an Orgy Cloak. And Sora saying "You're back, I waited up even though you told me not to..." and then Riku patting him on the head saying "I knew you would. I brought some news....our battle's not over yet..." Sora *in shock* and Riku says "Theres still places where the light hasnt reached and one of thems closer than you think..." Sora says" You mean?!" & Riku goes " Yes, our island..." DUH DUH DUUUUUUUH!!!! e.e and then I pictured simple and clean comming on. XD Soooo Yes this is awsome and inspiring! btw sorry if you had to read all that -__-
