More Drawing For Animation!


The above drawings were to demonstrate throwing an object, using Anticipation. On the leftmost picture, I used different shades to show certain areas of the movement, Ink being the middle movement, dark pencil being the end (the high point) and the light pencil being the start (anticipation) and the inbetweens. The inbetweens are further apart towards the end of the throw to show the acceleration of the arm. The right picture I annotated extensively to describe the movement, from the bend of the legs to the movement of the head forward.

This drawing has an example of Follow Through (PFFTT... Hahaha) using Walt Disney's Pluto, ripping some Fly Paper from his behind, spinning him out. Follow through is used on his ears and tail.

Line of Action

This drawing features two lines of action 

Using a mannequin to draw a figure in a pose of movement, I attempted to keep scale between the images, lining up key areas like the hips, head and shoulders where possible, this helped get scale, despite the model being moved to different poses.

As above, the mannequin was drawn. In this pose, it is in the middle of a full run.


Part of our Life Drawing, I drew another classmate, Jade Willis. I was very happy with how I got the shape of her eyes.

Another example of throwing, featuring Anticipation.
