This is a project idea i took up to hopefully keep me a little busy and not bored for my summer vacation.
i plan on animating this in AS although i'm getting pretty frustrated trying to figure out how this whole thing works. ( only used traditional method animation until now) i'm sure with some more reading and questions here on the board it can be completed.


i want to have my high school mascot( blue devil) doing the robot on stage, with techno music in the background.

what do you guys think?

this is my character.

A funny suggestion: make the tail a main actor of the break dance. It will rock!!
Let the tail make its own movements and funky imitations: like a spring, like a lighting, like a square... There is a lot of chance with the funky tail.

Good look and enjoy it during the summer!.

Make him do the moonwalk like Michael Jackson, too - and maybe some popping and locking. AS can really help you do what you see in your mind. Don't be intimidated by this software - it really is incredible. It starts you off slow and you feel like a dingbat at first... but the learning curve is very fast and you will pick it up in no time. You have definitely made the right decision getting Anime Studio. I will never do cel again.

Have you seen what Greykid has shown is possible? Why go back to cels?

You will have your mascot breakin' in no time. In the meantime, check out this for maybe some ideas?
(I love this video)
