The Ramen Ronin: My final for animation class

Post by Yukupo »

Hey guys. Here's what I spent the last four weeks on in my animation class. I brought the Ramen Ronin to life. It's hand drawn in Adobe Flash with some tweens and repeated cells of course but I had time constraints. The music should be familiar methinks. ;)

Oh probably. Right now I don't even want to think about animation. :lol:

Who did the voices? And will we eventually see a feature length version as the trailer implies?

The voices were all me. 8-)

And the trailer is a lie.

ah, thus why the female character never spoke. Good vocal work, a pretty diverse array of voices, making the characters sound unique. Lemme guess, Ramen Ronin himself was your normal voice? Or perhaps his older brother :O.... O_o or perhaps the chai-looking character. The only one im ruling out was the guy with the pony tail, cause I just dont see that one. :P

o_o I see... normal, sounds... completely... normal...

Um, anyway did you get a good grade on it? I imagine doing a complete animation by yourself was extremely difficult. Plus doing the audio and voices. Did you have to do a story board as well to turn in with the project?

Eh, the biggest problem with the digital arts program in this school is the lack of structure. People could turn in abstract crazy videos and its taken just as well as story-boarded cell animation. So essentially I did way more work than I needed to. Yeah, I did story-boarding but not only was I not required to, I don't think he once mentioned story-boarding the entire term.

Let me say, it was the busiest I've ever been at during school.
