Cupid’s Arrow Character Animation
Character Animation
I’d like to apologize in advance for what you’re about to see. It started out as a joke sketch. It cracked me up because of my admittedly broken sense of humor. I showed it to some co-workers, to my surprise some of them laughed in addition to shaking their heads or looking at me with an expression of concern. I created storyboards and got help brainstorming to develop characters. I designed the environments and animated the characters while convincing one coworker to edit and another to design and animate the title card. For me it was a good experience in character design and animation, as well as writing, pitching and overseeing an animated short. I hope it creates a small spark of joy in those who watch it.
The environment went through many iterations before settling on a final look
