     We are tasked to create an action animation for the project by Mr. Kamal. We have to choose one action among the videos he gave out, listed in the instruction. That's where I started, choosing an action. And after a couple of minutes of watching it, I decided to choose this one as a reference: 


     As for what character I will make for this project, I will stick with the cartoon character Arnold from "Hey! Arnold" as I have done much with the character.

REFLECTION

Project 2: Action Animation
     This was significantly harder than the first project because the movements weren't repetitive, and I needed to draw more for it to work. For the first project, I only needed to draw four steps and copy-pasted them for the rest; unlike this one, all the movements are different. But after some trial and error, I got it to work with the reference. I learned that animation was more challenging than it looks; it takes long hours and practice to make it look good.
