Dialogue Mouth Shapes in Loose Style Experiment.
This experiment was to investigate the effect of animating together frames which were hand drawn in a loose, freehand style rather than a clean and photoshop assisted approach. This method was influenced by the earlier works of Johnathan Hodgson.
The figures head in the animation is created using oil pastel and watercolour and is looped going through nine shapes in which the mouth makes during dialogue.
From this experiment I have discovered that when rough images are animated together in a sequence, the looseness works well and produces an energetic feel. If the head had been left static and only the mouth shapes altered, this energetic feel would have not been achieved.
