A Flash Like None You Have Ever Seen

Posted by EKublai - February 11th, 2010


I Am Animating In A Room

I jest not. As far as I am aware, no other flash has been made using the process that I used to achieve the type of animation I present in this experiment, "I Am Animating In A Room."

Enjoy!

1st Movement: "Ghostmas"
2nd Movement: "I am a Legend"
3rd Movement: "One Hour Evacuation"

After over three years of animating it, it is finally done. Perhaps the strangest part about "I am Animating in a Room" is that what it contains was never intended for release, at least not until October of 2009, which when I decided to turn crap into.... confusing crap.

There will a time to tell the full story of this flash in a blog post. The essential information is this: This is a rotoscoping/trace bitmap experiment. Digital effects were added to a video of the compilation of animations, then reimported it into Flash as a series of images, which I then bitmap traced. I then rotoscoped the vectorized bitmaps, using the traced bitmaps color palette to help me replicate it in my own way.

It's going to be a whole commentary and such, right?
I'm going to watch it

I feel like I just played Polybius.
