  1. PivotIntroduction

  2. What is Pivot? • Pivot Stickfigure Animator 3.1 • Animate figures • Create figures • Import backgrounds, pictures, sprites, etc. • Create movies

  3. Animation • Sections of figures “pivot” on joints. • By moving segments small amounts each frame, you create motion • The smaller the move each frame, the smoother the motion appears. • Multiple figures can be animated in a movie at the same time.

  4. Example of Animation

  5. Moving Pivot Points • Each joint moves in concert with the others. • More pivot points can add more realistic motion. • A spine has many joints, having more pivot points makes it look rounded and adds flexibilty. • Adding feet or a neck makes it look more expressive. • More pivot points also means more adjustments in each frame.

  6. Today’s Goal • Make a stick figure run across the screen and jump up and down. • Animation should have at least 40 frames. • Play back adjusting the frame speed. • Save file and keep for next lesson.
