 I made a dialogue animation with a ghost saying "i see you". The ghost squints when it says "you" as it makes the ghost have more emotion. The ghost's dialogue was synced up well in my opinion.

 I made a walk cycle. I made an avali walking away from KFC. avalis are bird like raptors from space and the joke is that avalis are space chickens and KFC makes chicken wings out of them. The avali was difficult to make but i was able to make the walk cycle. 

I created a animation of a dragon trying to lift a rock. the dragon tries but fails to lift it. 

 I created a head turn animation of a character from my story (War of Dragons). The head turn depicts a Federation Legionary. The Federation legionnaire's head turns from left to right. This animation was a bit harder to do as i have not drawn something like this. 

 I made an animation using flour sacks. These flour sacks are from different factions in my story (War of Dragons) The flour sack on the left is under the symbol of The Raddmoses Kingdom ("the good guys") The flour sack on the right is under the symbol of The Confederate Union. The flour sack on the right throws a rock at the one on the left while the one on the left shots the one on the right.

 I made a ball on a string move while on a rectangle platform. The platform moved from left to right and stopped abruptly. While the platform was moving the ball was dragging behind the rectangular platform. When the platform stopped the ball swung back and forth 

 I have created a bouncing ball animation. The ball bounced on three different platforms with each of them turning a different color. after the ball had bounced on it. This project was fun to do and is very pleasing to watch. 

 For timing and spacing i created (unfortunately the file was written over) series of ease in and outs. the first on was a liner animation. a circle went across a line smoothly with out any stops. The second animation was an ease in and out. this was the same circle but going in slower and going out slower . The third one was an ease out. again i had a circle move across a line only this time the circle was faster then slower at the end. The last animation was an ease in animation. This one was faster in the beginning and slower in the start.
