This is an animation I made to enter in a competition organized by a YouTuber named: "Sir Fluff". It was the push I needed to actually start animating by myself and it made me realise how much I enjoyed animating. I had always watched animation channels but was apprehensive to just doing it myself since I would have had to learn it all by myself. This is partially why I think I only started to animate seriously once I entered the GLR. This was made before I learned the principles of Ae, so a lot of this has small errors and things that could have been easily fixed. I learned a lot by trying to replicate the example in my own style and with my own character. I experimented a lot to make this animation.
Due to this being one of my first animations and personal projects I didn't really focus on the process or the steps on how to make it. Besides some exploration with character design. For the rest, I went with the flow. Here is all the sketches and process I could find for this project.
The art was made in a free illustration app which worked well for what I needed at the time, but it unfortunately did not have a correct 1920x1080 preset. And did not listen to custom presets.
