I changed they way his legs move and added a mouth. Next class I might just completely redo the zombie walking animation. I have learned that making animations is a really hard and long process. Instead of making the animation inside Photoshop, I made it in GameMaker's Sprite editor. I decided to create the sprite in Game maker because its easier to make multiple frames and its a much faster process. However it does have some draw backs, like you cant flip parts of images without flipping the whole image. By making the animations in Game Maker I figured out a new technique for animating my pictures. I start by selecting a segments and copying them over to one side. Then I paste pieces of the limbs onto the torso assembling them into a characters pose. I then repeat the process until I have enough frames for it to like slightly animated. This time it didn't turn out to well. But next time I use this quick and easy technique it might prove more effective with more time.
