Vive l'Animation!

L'animation de Ben from a week of production with the students of La Poudrière.

They needed us to make some cool animations, that will help them pitch their ideas for a TV series.

This project is called Mister Stan, and it's a kind of an adaptation from the French book “OUST ou l’insupportable monsieur Stan”.

Only the animation and cleanup is by me.

Sant'e!  

Flash Animation

Flash is not my favorite animation tool, but at least we get to see the animation fully colored and cleaned and I had some fun trying to play with it's limitations. 

So I used this opportunity to test a character that I designed a while ago, you can see the post on this link.

Then I had to design a character answering to this sentence: "A 52 years old Canadian woman, unemployed, looking super tired, wearing a leather jacket".

And I made her walk:
