After some thinking, I decided not to try and animate a Gangsta Lean for my character walk. One reason was that it is virutally impossible to find a reference video online as there is a very famous hip hop song called Gangsta Lean, and I wasn't going to try and film myself attempting to do it! I have decided to animate an angry walk as demonstrated here in my reference video..

Im going to animate it in Flash again as I have gotten to grips with it now. Yesterday Andy showed us a really interesting program called Animate Pro which I would like to use, perhaps for our next characterization exercise. I am going to start working on my experimental project today also. I want to get it finished by November 1st so I can spend a whole month really concentrating on the 11 second club assignment. I am going to start by listening to the three tracks I have narrowed it down to and just doing some sketching whilst listening to them. I find this really helpful as I have more ideas when Im not really thinking about the assignment at all. I do know however that I want to do pixilation as the medium and perhaps combine it with drawn animation.
