Slapstick - Bench


I knew the bench animation was going to be tricky, therefore I created a simple test animaton first. I think this is overrall quite successful, however it could be neater, and the right side should raise a lot smoother, as well as causing the bench to bend with the strain. The movement is quite quick however, so it's not too noticeable. I can also play with how long the bench is held under strain before quickly flicking up, to give the animation different effects.


I realised that the lineart was going to be quite messy if I animated the bench frame by frame, therefore instead - and to save time - I edited the original bench to transfrom to the shape of the test animation. I did this for each frame and exported it into TvPaint. I think this saved me a lot of time, and the result was a cleaner animation, however the warping is quite obvious, and is only acceptable for this animation as it's very quick. Overrall I'm quite pleased with this clip though.
