Animation Physics (PHYS 23)

Script, Boards, and Reference for Character Animation For my second animation, I plan to animate a desk lamp coming to life (ala Luxo Jr.) and interacting with a decorated pumpkin Jack-O-Lantern, it's light going off near the end to reveal the pumpkin's painted eyes glowing in the dark, with the lamp acting "shocked". I intend to have the lamp shuffle forward instead of hopping, but if I feel some short hopping is necessary I might elevate it with some kind of rubber eraser or other similar material.

If the pumpkin's eyes don't glow enough on their own, I'll consider touching them up in photoshop so that they read as glowing better. I intend to use adobe premiere to sequence the shots one after the other like I did with the falling object assignment. I int...

Many of these stunts can blow away your imagination about as well as they can break the laws of physics. Nobody likes to be that guy who ruins superhero movies by pointing out how “unrealistic” they are…okay well a few people do, but I don’t. But there is a point there in that these movies typically play with, skirt around, or even just outright ignore the laws of physics in many ways we may or may not even think about upon watching them in the moment. They can get away with this a lot simply because most audiences only have a rudimentary understand...
