Did you ever wonder how animators made their characters appear to be in outer space or on a beach?
Adding a computer generated background using chroma keying or "green screen" effect is super simple and it really adds a WOW! factor to your animation films.
Tutorial - Walking with Stickbot
Our Second Stikbot Challenge
For today's task you will use the Stickbot app to create a 5 second animation of your Stickbot walking across the screen. You MUST use the 3 leg positions that you saw in the video above. You need 15 frames (photos) for each second of video, so that means that your 5 second animation should have at least 75 frames. Remember to NOT MOVE YOUR CAMERA and to use the onion skinning effect to help you make a professional, smooth animation.
