Extreme Emotions - Proof of Concept

I also wanted to look at exaggeration, which, as I mentioned before, is something I adore in animation. Since I am fairly limited with the character I was given, I decided to mess around with the face of the character, to see how much freedom I actually had with the character's expressions. This would also prove useful for when I am making the storyboard and I need to know the poses I draw on each panel is even possible. So what I did was I made Moom pull a bunch of faces then drew them. I decided to draw them so that I would know how extreme his emotions could be and I could learn to draw them well for the storyboard.


This wasn't the only thing I did, mind you. I had to see how I could animate poses for Moom as well. So afterwards, I made a little video of Moom making random faces and gestures to practice animating and transitioning between emotions. I was still learning to animate Moom at the time so this wasn't exactly perfectly animated, but it was good for this.
