Pivot Free Runner

I really enjoyed creating my own animation. It was fun to make my animation do whatever I wanted it to do. But, sometimes it was difficult to make the animation move as realistically as possible. Moving each body part to make it seem perfect was sometimes frustrating because it wasn't exactly how you wanted it. I liked finding ways to make my animation climb, swing, dance, flip, jump,and slide. Like I said, I really enjoyed this assignment and would definitely want to work more with Pivot Animator. Below, is the animation I created.

History of Animation

Animation has changed drastically throughout history. Some of the earliest animations included Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck and Popeye. In class we watched some of the earliest animation videos. These videos were in black and white and had some sound effects but there was no talking. In time, animations got color, talking and many more. I think learning about the different animations throughout history is very cool.
