I'm a pixel artist and an animator. However, I don't consider myself to be that good. In order to improve, I thought I should practice more, but unfortunately I can't think of anything to draw or animate. Does anyone have any ideas about what I should draw or animate? If you want, I could make something for a project or something. Pls halp.
I used to love watching animated stick figures fight. Perhaps you could animate a miniature pixel guy battle on a 256x256 square or smaller.
2) Try creating an underwater coral reef scene. The colors and animations are more difficult to create, great practice.
3) Remake ANY 70/80/90's music video in pixel animation! Tiny music videos would be rediculously adorable and unique. Maybe display maybe local talent, animate them as pixel dudes jamming perhaps.
Take a photo, use a mosaic / tile filter, then recreate image as pixel art and animate from there. I also like gradually reducing image sizes in sequence to break them down to more or less pixelized versions which can help make it less overwhelming.
Maybe fireworks would be a better example than flowers, shading the clouds above & below. :)
I'm old school, started with MS Paint back in 94, everything was pretty much pixel art. animated gifs were all the rage. Good luck with your projects! Hit me up anytime!
