Timing and Spacing
Flour Sack Gesture Sheet and Action
For this assignment, I created a flour sack character and then animated it preforming an action. First, I created the sketches of the flour sack with the aid of lines of action, in various poses. For the action animation, I wanted to stay with the fantasy-like theme that I have been going with for my projects. I decided I wanted to have my character attempt to pull an axe out of a cliff wall. Emphasizing the weight and how stuck the axe is, I made sure to have the character attempt to pull multiple times with the strength and length of the pull increasing every time. To emphasize that the character is, at heart, a soft sack of flour, I animated it so the weight and inertia of the axe coming out of the wall caused it to fall backwards, sending the axe flying.
