First add a variation of animation skills that could possibly prove useful out in the industry, the plan is to animate a dog (Quadruped) running, walking and interacting with something. Also plan to animate a biped lifting a heavy object, jumping a gap, talking (lip sync) and also a character animation piece which will involve a character interacting with a ball playing basketball. Here I have a few videos which I have watched carefully for inspiration and reference on the way a dog’s body moves.
The phenakistoscope was an early animation device that used the persistence of vision principle to create an illusion of motion. It was invented by Joseph Plateau in 1841. The phenakistoscope used a spinning disc attached vertically to a handle.
