Who knew keeping the back and front legs at the appropriate flexion and extension points at the right time compared to each other would be so tricky?
It seemed so simple!
Me: imma try animating a horse run cycle, like the classic early film. Should be fine. I understand leg anatomy and I know how horses move when they run. I'll just go bit by bit.
Hours later: WhAt eVEn aRe 'LeGS' anYwAys?!
This happens with me and certain types of similar sounds too!

The One With The Horrors is my least favorite Friends episode
As a non-binary person born in the 'cusp' of Cancer and Leo...
Herd somethin'! 😃
I think I want to play with more exaggerated deforming in the 'tween shots in the future, but right now I'm mainly focusing on getting basic movements looking good.
Also consistency! Like following the shoulder outline better, etc
Bonus version with more (way too many) frames because I'm playing around with how the amount of animation frames changes the look/behavior and how it reads

I mean, that too!
The fictonal star-crossed love part is neat and charming and all, and a good device to explore the class dynamics, but we know why we're here lol
I feel it in my SOUL, I tell you!
"Humans aren't gonna behave as we think we always should
Yeah we can be bad
As we can be good"
Also makes me think of that song by Marina and the Diamonds.
"We're just animals still learning how to crawl"
Also, all of (last post-thread) Makes me think of how, in LOTR, The One Ring "became myth and passed out of all knowledge"
When people who lived through it (elves) were still alive
Used to drive me nuts. But it actually makes sense and tracks with how quickly people phase the past to irrelevancy.
(speaking of having a poor grasp of time, all these longevity estimates are just that, estimates, and I don't know them off the top of my head, I looked several up while pondering, soooo Timelines in general may be off, but the fact is we haven't been around very long and yet look at... Everything)
And we're sitting at less than half that, creating things no other species could dream of (sometimes wonderful and sometimes horrible)
And playing with the triggers of several self-concocted self extinction scenarios at once.
We really are some chaos gremlins at heart.
And the blue whale has existed for around 4.5 million.
Apparently The average longevity of a mammalian species in general is about 2 million.
(There's some significant wiggle room with that number, to my understanding, between fossils and genetic evidence, we could stretch back to something like 700,000 years?)
But still. That means we haven't even been around for 1 million years yet
T. rex existed for something like 2.5 million years
Humans, despite all our brain power, have a really poor grasp of the passage of time and it's relation between events
Our whole recorded history is only somewhere between 200-250 generations old
Our entire species is estimated to be between 10,000-15,000 generations old. Or roughly 300,000 years
They lived through Titanic, both world wars, the civil rights movement of the 60's, the Cold Wars, AIDS
Four even lived through Y2K, and 9/11
Crazy to think about.
I wonder what their thoughts were about everything they saw. All that in one lifetime
Wonder what they would have thought today.
Those seven remaining survivors were all 2nd and 3rd class passengers. (The last 1st class survivor died in 1992)
One was Louise Marie Marguerite Laroche, a member of the only black family aboard the Titanic. (She was 2 years old when the ship sank. She passed in 1998)
Just pondering.
There were 7 survivors of the Titanic alive when the 1998 movie came out. The last survivor was 2 months old when the ship sank in 1912. Her name was Eliza Gladys Millvina Dean. She lived until 2009. I didn't know that before.
1912-2009
"Life is short but it is long" indeed.
*Sees something about the Titanic*
*Gets the urge to watch the Cameron movie again*
*Jumps to the last half with the iceberg strike because the somewhat moderately faithful recreation of the sinking itself is the part I'm actually interested in*
Yeah, I wish I lived in a timeline where I could be excited by this news
Balint: One day you will face your crimes
Noem: *stone faced because she thinks her loyalty to the regime will protect or pardon her*
🍊: Nevermind the crimes! I totally didn't know you were spending my- er- the peoples tax money on an ad campaign featuring you! You're gone
Noem:
I was wondering what happened!
...I almost feel like laughing. This is an absolutely ludicrous failure of strategy and foresight. Or just lack of care. Wonder how this particular ceo feels now
Just like with Noem, 🍊 has no friends. He has tools/toys he'll use and set aside as playthings on a whim
Second animation test with the animation app. I started with two circles spinning. Then I went back and added a connecting line here, a little more detail there...
Two hours later and I had this xD
