Animated Sprites

In this lesson we learnt about animated sprites. We were given two animations, one of a pig guard walking which had 4 frames, and one of a girl walking which had 12 frames. We were asked to try adding red eyes to the guard, which I did below. 


Then we were asked to add a prop to the walking girl. I chose to add some headphones. I drew them once on a layer above the first one, then to save time, copy and pasted the headphones onto separate layers. I used the pencil tool to tweak each layer to match the relevant frames better. Here's what I ended up with. 

The headphones do look like they are on her head, but I think they move around a bit too much in the middle frames which gives them a bouncing effect. Next time I will try to edit each layer more closely or even try to redraw the headphones for each frame.
