Character Animation
This assignment is intended to get you used to looking closely at movement (how a shape changes over time), and using some of the most important Principles, as well as get used to the OpenToonz interface. Create an animation of a hand gesture, at least 1 second long (but it should be as long as it needs to be to complete the movement). The hand should change shape over time, and it should include at least the first three of the four of the principles discussed (below). Note: There is a pretty quick turnaround for this assignment, so you can keep it sketchy. You will have the opportunity to go back over your lines and add shading later.
