100 ITERATIONS
selection of snippet
My snippet is an illustration that comes from the first project Methods of Iteration, where I depicted myself running through a cemetery. In retrospect, I see that as a hilarious incident and thought I could use that image as a character for this project.
I thought about frame animation and how we rarely consider each frame of a video to be its own unique image. One single movement of running can be broken up into several images which are then stitched together to create a perceivable motion.
For the purpose of this animation, I use 10 frames to create one cycle of run – left leg + right leg.
…Then, I redrew each key-frame 9 more times. Great, now I had 100 frames. Below, the gifs are supposed to be each key-frame joined with its 9 other unidentical counterparts.
To truly have 100 unique frames, I added the tombstone outlines from the ‘snippet’ and rearranged them in different combinations to create 100 backgrounds. Here are all 100 frames:
Each frame was exported as an image to create a publication of 100 pages.
