🎞 Bee loop 🐝 Simple frame by frame animation
Frame by frame animation, 12 FPS, created in procreate
April ‘21
I created this simple animation after I began watching a course on Animated illustration in procreate by Martin Tognola.
Main animation principles:
Slow in and slow out ~ Exaggeration ~ Anticipation ~ Motion loop ~ Arcs ~ Appeal
Acceleration is represented through wider clear spaces between shapes. Flattening the 🐝’s body also helps creating the illusion of high speed
~ Slow-out / Squash and stretch ~
Deceleration is shown through smaller clear spaces between shapes. Numerous layers often overlap in the attempt to create this effect. Exaggerating the insects’ body (narrowing it) also helps.
~ Slow-in / Squash and stretch ~
The 8-shaped arc gives a smooth and uninterrupted line for the bee’s movement. This arc is also pleasing to the eye and it gives the animation continuity.
~ Arc ~
Appeal comes from looking sharp, agile, witty, petite.
