Flipbook Animation Inspiration*

My Flipbook Animation:

 

Inspirations

These are three videos that i believe have inspired me to create my own flipbook that consists of mainly plants and nature and transitions throughout the day capturing the essence of the night as well. I decided to stick to something simple and not so complicated since Im not really the best artist and can barely draw a stick figure. My flipbook first starts with a seed growing into a beautiful flower that has more flowers attached to the same stem. you can realize how the petals start to grow in each page and how the sun moves and basically how nature works. Then I transformed the plant from the ground into a pot where it was now taken care of indoors. Slowly the pot transitions into another object which evolves into a palm tree slowly growing as you flip the book. In each page i concentrated on the details so that you could tell the simple differences. The focus later is of the birds flying leaving the palm tree to an island and you begin to see an island emerging with a palm tree and other species as well that live by the water. Then it transitions into night, and the island starts going back into the water showing how islands go above or beneath sea levels depending on the strength of the tide. Its no longer a fun sunny day once the moon has come out and then the focus is on the night time and what appears to be in the sky. The last thing i focused on was an emerging sun from the bottom welcoming another day. When i first started it i felt like i wasnt so sure what i had to do but once i started drawing ideas kept on running through my mind and i started connecting them and adding a few things. I had a great time working on this project, although what i despised was repeating the same drawing over and over again!
