Animation Ga - Teo Hardemo

This animation is my graduation project. Its a fightscene between two "ronins" living by the sword in a mysterious world. My original idea was to emphasize on the story behind the characters and why they are fighting, though this didn't work out. Because of bad planning and the file constantly lagging out i quickly fell off schedule. In the end my focus was on creating a fully colored animation with an ending, which i believe i was able to deliver. Though the colouring was rushed and I wasn't able to polish many of the animations.

If I were to do a similar project again there's a few things I'd done different with hindsight. First off, a clear storyboard/animatic, I started animating before i had the full view of my project. this lead me to have no clear end in sight which made it hard to plan and finish the project. Secondly create something shorter that is more polished. Quantity over quality isn't always the best. There's lots more i could rant on but that won't do anyone any good. This is the result of my work.
