As part of the films we are going to mask gifs on to the footage sequences. I had experience making gifs from before but found this process really really hard, and got quite frustrated trying to make patterns loop.
One of the things I find hard working in groups is perhaps heightening my expectations of myself too far- I'm afraid to not look like I'm pulling my weight when I have tried and made a substantial amount of work. I find it hard to judge what people expect of me and as a result became quite stressed over a simple task! I know I'm not an animator so was never sure what was 'good' in animation terms.
I had a selection of still images we had decided to make into gifs from the group, but after getting frustrated at myself I just made what I could and improvised with some simpler works. My worrying wasn't worth it as the group liked what I produced in the end! I'm hoping that the next stage of animation will be less complicated for my brain (loops are like puzzles, and puzzles are not a strength) and will not stress out so much! I will be open about what I can make, and will ask for feedback rather than worrying about it!
