About: Here it is, the first Advanced Animation lesson for Doodle Academy! Today, we'll be learning how to animate an eye blinking. Enjoy! <3 Homework: •Remix this and animate your own eye blinking! •Homework is due in a week (July 7th) but if you really need an extention just let me know! • Feel free to edit your homework or redo your homework before the due date, just let me know first! Tips: •Add a little bounce! You'll notice when you look at someone opening their eyes, the eye or the pupil over shoot their distance a little bit and either open a little wider then they mean to or look up a little further then they mean to. •Remember that the eye closes faster then it opens, be sure to add in a few more inbetweens for the eye opening! •Have the pupil dialate as the eye closes. •Remember that the eye closes inwards (as in, both the top eyelid and bottom eyelid move towards eachother) and don't make the top eye lid move down and the bottom eyelid stay still or the other way around. •Maybe look in the mirror at your own eyes blinking, at some one elses eyes blinking, or look at other animations for refrence.
