# A duck


A spent a whole fucking hour on this, and turned out completely crappy. I'm a first-timer at the moving animals thing.

Better animators, what am I doing wrong?

# I like it
and i'm a complete suck at the whole moving shit period thing. I'd like to be able to make just normal cruddy gifs or flash. Gifs at least.

# Tis a lovely start...
the background is a bit jumpy - I give 'em a lot more motion blur for camoflauge. The hypno wheel might be a tad distracting, but it does add to the perception of motion.

Have a pearoast from the other night - 3 frames of craptaculous phoney motion (took me about an hour too):

# this took me bloody hours...

I only used 2frames and it still looks a bit
jumpy... i suppose it just depends on what
your happy to settle for, bearing in mind
file size restrictions. Just keep trying

# The jumpyness
enhances the perception of motion in this case though. Like the Good Doctor is racing down a graveled country lane on the way to battle eeeeeeeeevil, or solve a particularly difficult equation, or something like that.

# Well, good
