Inkwell Countdown

 

This is the first animation that I've done for my 2D animation class that I started this semester. It was my first time seriously using Adobe Animate, and I'm satisfied with how it turned out. I don't quite understand how other people who use Adobe Animate can have their lines look so polished. Apparently I just need to play around with the tools more. It's inspired by the old Fleischer cartoons. They had a recurring gag where a character would come out of the drop of the inkwell. So I decided to simplify that and use it to make numbers instead. For class, we were supposed to to a countdown of some kind. The hardest thing was the timing, and I think I would want to improve on that if this was going to be a professional piece. But for now I just don't have enough experience.

Anyway, I praise you, God, that you helped me get this done tonight. You're so kind. God's will be done for this animation. Love you. Amen.
