final(lens)

This work is something that I think describes me well as a person so it is a good self portrait, lazy, random and weird. This final took three weeks to make with over 100 hours put into it. By that definition it doesn't seem lazy at all but the thing about animation is that it is allot of work for not allot of screen time. The hardest part was the drawing of the head, it took 2 days to do a copy I could use, I had to edit the head scene frame by frame and it ended up being very time consuming a tedious, It took almost 3 days to edit the entire thing to be fluid and to put the frames into focus. I am happy with the end result but I could always make my work better, if I did this again I would use a lower frame rate so I could get more out of the time I put into the work and I would change the beginning to flow better with the rest of the video and I would do it on a computer with capture software so that I would have a smaller production process to go through making the work two times easier than what it was this time . As a self portrait I think that this video works well because it dose have a portrait of me inside it so I think I have hit the brief dead on and it holds true to my character profile of being someone who looks very lazy but actually dose allot of work and is completely random and weird. I learned many things while working on this project, I feel confident that the next time I do something like this I will be faster and do it to a better quality, I think I did well for my first time doing this type of animation and this will make me a better artist.
