I believe that the best way to learn is by doing. I am currently learning Adobe Flash. Here are some samples of my work so far, including my first narrative animated short, Honey Nut Latté.

Honey Nut Latté from Jenny Cooper on Vimeo.

This was my final project for my Digital Animation class. Written by me, created by me in Adobe Flash. It’s still a bit rough, and I plan to come back to it, smooth out the animation and add new details, such as a water color background for the final scene to tie the film’s look together a little better.

DISCLAIMER: Even though this may look a little familiar, the characters, events, settings and corporate entities depicted in this short are purely fictional and not intended to portray or resemble reality are not in anyway autobiographical… or a fantasy of mine… not even remotely…

My first assignment for my digital animation class was to create a short loop of animation. This is what I came up with.
