dont try to guess the actresses... pay attention to the moods, as the pictures morph the apparent mood/mindset of the actress morphs also, and there are some wicked looking tweens!!

I'm really impressed by the animation on the juggler. Especially the little extra kick he gives right before he does his backflip. It almost looks as good as motion capture just for a moment.

Yeah SuperSaiyan I'm pretty sure back in these days you didn't get to see your animation in playback until you printed each frame one at a time, then scanned each printed frame one at a time through an optical printer onto a film reel.

Computer models back then were created through direct input of co-ordinate mapping in worldspace, meaning the "artists" would type in the 3-axis co-ordinate of each vertex in the geometry without seeing what it looked like.

After modelling was complete, animation worked the same way... animators would figure out the keyframes by timelining things on paper and with maquettes and stopwatches. Then they'd manually type in the position changes, frame-by-frame... there were no motion paths or CG tweens back then. That's why in Tron the computer animation basically conists of statuelike, singular objects sliding around in space, except for some of the CG tanks, which have a 1-degree of motion turret. It was way too much work to have articulated CG characters.

You just dont seem to see many frame-by-frame animations much anymore.. Its always seems to be flash tweening, and paper-doll stuff..

So I thought she deserved some props on this, as I to the same school as her (but different major) I knew how many late nights after class even on weekends she spent on this animation. For at least 9 months!

Thanks to video-sift this video might actually be seen by someone. And live on

That was a high-tech shark analysis at the end: tweened yellow arrows.

All that tweening just made the final product look kinda.. wonky.

I'm there, deathcow. Yesterday's rush hour traffic (yes, it was a clusterfuck) caused me to yell, 'Get outta my lane, YOU DICK!!!' with 4 Tween passengers. ;/
