October 2020. One animation every day. Here’s what I made + some lessons I learned along the way!
Embrace the spirit of make.
Creativity simply means to create, and all I needed to do was make something no matter what it was.
Learn by doing.
If I couldn’t do it, I could figure it out. Or at least I could look it up on YouTube.
Focus on movement.
Most of these started out as a simple motion in my head. I could see a movement in my mind’s eye or act something out with my hands, then I’d try and replicate it.
Get in the zone.
When keyframes are flying out of your fingertips and the hours pass without you even noticing… that’s how you know it’s good.
Watch it over and over.
It’s time to hit export when you’ve watched it on loop 20 times in a row.
