Saya Takagi animation loop

RAR PASS: omaigotoHi! It’s been a while since my last post. This time I don’t really have an excuse. I was genuinely focused entirely on animating, but things got a little out of hand, so for those who are curious, here’s what happened xd

Before starting the next animation, I decided to take some time to go through my animation methods, question them, analyze them, and optimize them.

But then I thought: since I’m already doing this, why not study some new techniques as well, and improve the method while I’m optimizing it?

So that’s what I did. I spent several days watching animations, taking notes, writing down hypotheses and possible ways to apply them, and then testing those hypotheses in actual animations.

Those animations weren’t meant to be published, though. They were basically just for repeating the process over and over, leaving several aspects aside and focusing only on whatever I was testing at the time.

And well, it worked great. In fact, I finished the actual animation several days ago.

I just didn’t publish it because...

The gestures were still missing.

And it wasn’t just about making them. I ended up repeating the whole process again: studying, analyzing, writing hypotheses, testing them, making mistakes, writing down what went wrong, rearranging the steps, getting confused...

And yeah, that’s where things really got out of hand :p

But I’ve finally managed to bring some order to that chaos, hehe. I still have a lot to improve when it comes to gestures, but I definitely got faster, and I also feel like I improved quite a bit with expressions.

I still wouldn’t consider myself a pro, but I don’t feel like that day is very far away anymore. I can actually see it within reach now, hehehehe.

Also, I didn’t really want to make posts just to say what I was working on. If I’m going to make a post, I’d rather have some actual content to show you xd

So yeah, I’m sorry about the long inactivity. I’ll try not to let it get this out of hand again.The only things left now are the Pixiv preview and a RAR with a video of the animation, hehe.

I hope you like it, and thank you so much for being here and supporting my work! ❤
