Breathing GIF | Final

Here is the final hand-drawn GIF. My main hopes for this GIF were to preserve the quality of the original linework, and to add colour that stood out but didn't detract from those lines.

I like the textural quality that the analog materials bring, the sharp lines of the coloured pencil with the faded wash of paint in the background. They add a grimey, unclean appearance.


In the end, I scribbled out the colours on to trusty old tracing paper, and then assembled them into a GIF in photoshop. So every frame was made by hand.

I think the final result is fine when I look at it myself, but the idea of it being presented as a FINAL PIECE in front of everyone diminishes the quality, in my mind. It's satisfactory but nothing to shout about.
