Animation School Lesson 2: Squash & Stretch On The Head

Then READ and FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS Preston Blair gives you on this page...



Construct the dog's head, in various expressions.

Maintain the basic volume of the form you are distorting to create the expressions.

Pay attention to the differences in the way that the cranium and jaw distort.

Pay attention to the way the cheeks move up and down as the character smiles or frowns.

Draw the exercise and look for mistakes. Then draw it again and correct them.

When you are satisfied with your drawings, post them on your blog.
