Weekend Update: Sheet Timing

Hello Everyone! Below is the completed spreadsheet I made for my method for timing animation:


You can also download the spreadsheet here if you need to. (Will need your MCA email to download)

This is merely an alternative example to timing your work. We will talk more about this process (and layout) as we get further. Some of you may feel this process isn't as important as drawing your frames. However, spending 30 minutes to an hour drafting out some example to work from may save you about 2 or 3 trying to constantly move tons of frames around into decent timing.

When trying to time animation, you're literally trying to make your drawings occur at realisting or at least, believable intervals.  The more you practice, and the more time you dedicate in the beginning to understanding how long different actions take to do, the better you will get at it!

If you need a review of anything else covered on Wednesday, contact me at mshaw@mca.edu!
