Onwards: Running animation

Onwards is a great animation by James Jarvis and Richard Kenworthy of a simple character running . Beautiful examples of perspective. How to animate a moving character. Just a wonderful animation. I'll use this as an introduction to animation in my classroom.

I love how this piece captures the internal feel of running. If you've ever been a runner this film will make you want to put on the shoes and head out to the road.

Here's a short interview with James Jarvis, one of the animators, where he talks about the project and running.
