Animation - First lesson

Our first animation lesson had us start a small animation of a self portrait, merging into our favourite food (I chose sushi for this) and then merging into our favourite animal (mine's a cat) and then merging back into a self portrait.

I didn't count exactly but I think this took me around nine hours, which means I was doing ten frames an hour, which is a bit disappointing but I think it was mostly because of trying to figure out how things would merge into each other, and then because I don't really like using Adobe Animate, I prefer having easy access to moving and twisting the canvas.

I also cropped the canvas as a separate GIF so it can be seen easier.
