2 Run Cycles – Tests for Rabbit Heart

Here (below) you can see the original line test (in Photoshop) of the running legs… the legs where drawn or sketched out fairly intuitively, without using a lightbox which I guess is fairly unusual. You can see those original sketches to the left hand side of the animated images below. I then scanned the images into PhotoShop and used their simplistic animation timeline tool.

Being a Rabbit, I also played with the idea of a double-footed run that seemed more naturalistic, and less anthropomorphised

…I thought that it might be useful to show a single leg in motion, showing the frames onion-skinning, and so looking at the variations in position of all the separate parts of the leg and foot.
