Animating Illustrations Using the Puppet Tool

Hey Ninja P,Firstly, thanks for helping out Carla, what a great community we have here!Secondly, what an adorable cat! I love the way you've staggered the movements of each of the parts, it looks really natural and this cat looks like it's really enjoying itself as a result. Super natural movements, including the tail which can be tricky when you consider how many places you can put the pin here. Thanks for choosing this class to share your creations and I always love a little sparkle ;) Let me know how the bread/biscuits turned out and I hope to see more of your work in my classes in the future! K

Hi Carla, Thanks for the feedback :) You should upload the actual gif file. Kay explains how in Video 8. Your illustration is super cute &amp; I look forward to seeing it in action. Good luck!

Hi Ninja P, 

I have selected your projects as one of my favourites this month! It's really great puppet work. What's your insta handle(if you have one!)? Thanks

Aw thanks Kay! I really enjoyed putting it together. My instagram is pretty lame haha havn't used it for a while, perhaps i'll update it soon. The account is pixi.cat &amp; Yes, i may have a slight obsession with using cats names for my online accounts.     Thanks again.

I love your animation! How did you uploaded the moving image my gif is not showing. Did you upload a pdf?

Hi Friends, Finally decided to share&nbsp;one of my creations&nbsp;after doing a class. Making&nbsp;biscuits - inspired by my cat, Ninja. Thanks Kay for your great&nbsp;lesson on using the puppet tool. I added a little sparkle too. Hope you like!&nbsp; &nbsp; <img style="margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto;" src="https://static.skillshare.com/cdn-cgi/image/quality=80,width=1000,format=auto/uploads/project/a04e28fca97a60d86c1387eef3aa588b/d467e057" alt="Making biscuits ;) - image 1 - student project" srcset="https://static.skillshare.com/cdn-cgi/image/quality=80,width=600,format=auto/uploads/project/a04e28fca97a60d86c1387eef3aa588b/d467e057 600w, https://static.skillshare.com/cdn-cgi/image/quality=80,width=1000,format=auto/uploads/project/a04e28fca97a60d86c1387eef3aa588b/d467e057 1000w" sizes="(max-width: 600px) 600px, 100vw" loading="lazy">
