Special Effects! SFX

 So this week i have been doing some SFX animations.
I started off doing a mind map of what i could do and what story it could tell.

 

 i found a few ideas from this mind map quite interesting and sparked some motivation and so i went on to draw out some thumbnails of possibilities.

After i drew these out i started to realise that it would be quite difficult to animate some of the angles and SFX's so when i reached the animating part i tweaked the angles a bit. i decided to go with the second thumbnail because it was the one that i felt i could do the best in the required time-frame given.

these are my shots, was kind of a unneeded statement but anyway, i started the first one using a different angle but i made an accident that i will never make again, not saving. feeling quite bad at that point i decided to change the angle to something more simple, side on.

i feel like i did pretty alright, the strength of them is that you can tell what is going on. i had alot of fun doing the gore, i think you can tell that i did hahah. the weakness of this is that i believe the speedlines probably make the guy seem like he is going extremely fast.
