MicroLoops (2021 - Present)
-
DIRECTED, ANIMATION & SOUND DESIGN BY:
Austin Kimmell
The Coronavirus epidemic changed everyone's life in the worst way possible. Where once I had a future in front of me, I was stuck inside, trying to find a job. There are many ideas that I want to translate through animation, but don't necessitate the length and depth of a full short film.
Thus, many of these ideas became MicroLoops! I love to see small, seemingly insignificant moments play out - there's a beauty and hilarity in the mundane that mainstream animation rarely tries to convey. Not only are they great venue for small ideas, but they're great in keeping my skills sharp in between major works.
All GIF's were crafted by myself using ToonBoom Harmony, After Effects, and occasionally other programs and materials (Photoshop, Procreate, Pencil & Paper, etc.) Also, try and keep the sound on. It helps.
