Paintball: A Phenakistoscope Wheel by Chance Reynolds (2022)

The piece was inspired by a game I play called RecRoom. It's a VR game I love playing so I wanted to make an animation with that. When creating this project I learned how to use proper framing do my advantage as well as making smooth animation. One struggle I ran into though was doing the paintball splatter because I didn't know when to make the splat happen since I didn't want it to be too early, but I eventually figured it out.

I don't think I would change a thing about this project, except for how many times I had to erase. I am really proud of the loops I managed to do for this , it was fun having my character wipe the paint away then shoot it again at the viewer. This project really made me appreciate other animations I see because I know it takes a lot of effort to make these kinds of animations so I will not stop and give a person praise for the work that they did!
