One of the design goals that I set for myself was to create animation prototypes for my game, this can range from character movement to the animation of the environment, admittedly I have been quite nervous starting this process because I am not very well versed in animation. But never the less I began looking at different youtube tutorials for animation, it was quite hard to find a youtube video that had the right content because a lot of the character animations that were available on youtube had normal walking cycles, but my goal was to have my character walk/ run with a limp, then I found this youtube video of a man walking whilst limping, So I sketched his movements in the video, I think I made about 20 - 30 drawings of the man's movement. Once that was completed I began sketching the movements in procreate, I have been using procreate for the last 2 years but I didn't until very recently that has an animated assist section, how it works is by sketching a layer and adding another layer which creates the illusion of animation. I had a work process when it came to creating the animation, and it goes a bit like this:

​

1. Sketch the skeleton.

2. Sketch the clothes and how they would interact with the body and air drags.

3. Create a final design of the animaiton

​

I have to say the animation took me a lot longer than I imagined, I was doing it for 2 hours, that being said it is my first attempt with the animation so maybe that duration will increased over time.
