Flipbook
My flip book is based off of the novel To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee. All the images are metaphorical to what happens in the story; for instance, the handcuffs being connected to the briefcase is representative of Atticus Finch's connection to the case of Tom Robinson and vice versa. Though the drawings are not very complex, the hardest part of making the flip book was the drawing. I had to do it backwards so I could trace the images since I can't draw the same thing twice, let alone repeatedly, so thinking about the story backwards proved to be a little challenging. Using the window to trace also wasn't too fun; the way I had to sit to do it didn't exactly agree with my back, and my hand got tired pretty quickly. It was shaking by the time I finished a section! I think by now I can say that I'm glad I'm not an animation major. Anyway, enjoy!
