I'm making a short animation in After Effects: in this specific shot a person is walking holding a tray with some objects (it's stylised, so the tray is a line). I want to add a subtle animation to the objects, but can't figure out the physics affecting them. I assume objects can jump a little because of the person's body going up and down while walking. But at what moment should they jump? Are they going to rotate slightly? Do they move simultaneously or with delay for ones at the top? I don't need the motion to be super realistic, just for it to make sense and to make animation feel more lively. Thanks!
Based off my two FPE ocs. Poorly made mostly bc I'm lazy and it's pretty late as of now. Hopefully I can make more soon (and maybe actually add audio of sorts with CapCut)
Addicted to animating dnd stuff....
Anything for that XP. You can help me make more stupid cartoons by becoming a patron! https://www.patreon.com/user?u=2546769&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator
3D animation done in Blender by me, sound by me also
So I was a kid between 2000-2010, there was a small DvD, the cover had little rats on it and it was beige, I don't remember the story line but there's a really specific scene where the rats were being rolled on bread dough by a humanoid on a wood table. I really don't remember anything else, I've been trying to find this movie for about more than 10 years now, please help me!!
Literally everything I'm about to say may or may not be accurate because my memory is really foggy, but years ago I saw this edit about some dangerous kids in an asylum who had crazy powers (I think?). I vividly remember wanting to watch it cause it looked cool but being disappointed cause it wasn't an actual anime. The edit was on tik tok and the audio was somethin about "inmates escape from blah blah prison" or something like that. I randomly remembered this earlier today and it's haunting me. I can't find anything about it. This community has 1 mil people, surely someone has to know what I'm talking about
(It's not prison school, I'm sure of that)
This is driving me insane. There was a short film i saw on TikTok about two guys who try to build a bridge across a canyon of some sort, and they shoot a flare for every milestone. Eventually a storm rolls in and they almost make it across but one guy has to sacrifice himself but he shoots the flare off to give the town hope that they made it across our something. What is this thing i remember?
What websites are best where I can hire someone to create an animation for a youtube video.
Ideally I can browse through many designers works and then figure out whose style fits me most.
I simply need a quick youtube video intro but I want it to look super professional and creative.
I love this guys stuff for example but he hasn't responded to me: https://www.instagram.com/p/C6NAjIMNRWw/?hl=en
