This was my first animation that was made from a drawing and my first lip-sync. The process required drawing a self-portrait caricature and scanning it into the computer, where I then used it as a guild in Adobe Flash. In the end, I created all the elements in this animation all by hand, before scanning.
Starting this animation off didn’t go very well. The problem was in my drawing. I was using a drawing that could be a lot better, so I scraped the animation and started over.
After recreating the self-portrait and also drawing out the other elements, I was able to start the revision on a better foundation. A few things that I should fix would be the sauce that the aliens leave behind. It could be more gooey and less like a line drawn across the paper. Another fix, would the fuel line that falls off the rocket ship. It really should be more detailed and look more like the fueling line of a car, less like a panel falling off.
