Gifs for Friends pt. 3
To finish up with the co-workers, we have Supergirl, who is for the woman who gave me back issue of a comic when I left the company, and a coffee drinking owl for another who I saw wear some owl earrings once.
Really simple animations. But I think they’ll like ’em.
Gifs For Friends pt. 2
Just a few more gifs for that last job I held. One guy likes squirrels and puzzles and another guy likes comic books. I never asked his favorite character, but Amazing Spider-Man 2 came out this weekend, so Spidey it is.
Batman Gif Revisited
Did this over in Adobe Flash. Timing is very different than the timeline in PhotoShop. But, gotta learn somehow.

GIFs for friends.
These are a few animations for some former co-workers for when I worked at at a Jesuit library for the blind. One guy really likes the ’66 Batman series so I chibi-fied it for ease and did this.
And the Head of the Organization was an opera singer and sings often in the office, randomly. Also he has a thing for rhinoceros art. So this was done up for him.
The other folks are a little harder to personify as they don’t have spirit animals that they made me aware of. Well one guy likes squirrels, so I’ll do something with that later.
I made this for my friends birthday.
She’s a kick ass drummer and artist. Her energy is always up.

Sound Off All-Stars Video
Rough animation, just a few frames, in the tradition of Brad Neely. creator of Adult Swim’s China, IL. Only it’s just Blue Line Roughs, like a basic story board animatic. Drawn in Adobe PhotoShop, imported into iMovie.
Re-Animated
Music put to the side for a while, got a gig through my sister where I was asked to a series of animated gifs. I used to make some gifs for fun for some forums, many years back. I used to use PhotoShop and it’s plug in ImageReady. I was worried when I couldn’t find ImageReady in CS 6. But a little google-fu showed me that there’s a timeline window in PhotoShop and it’s functionality is the same as what I was used to. Animating is time consuming, but I’m thinking of doing some in service to the Stunning Beeboy, and make myself more marketable in the process. I have 20 gifs to do for this gig, and I have to refamiliarize myself with what I used to know and learn a bunch of new tricks. So, here go some of my exercises and attempt.
