Get to Bed

Description

This isn't as great as I thought it would be, but I'm still fairly happy with it.
After the great success of my last emote, Eating Snow, I've decided to make another -- Get to Bed!

Maybe, later on, I'll come back and fix this up a bit -- it seems too choppy, to me. Tell me what you think, though. ^^

A total of seven (7) frames are used here, although most are used repetitively to increase the frame rate (which was set at 15fps. With the small animating program I use, each frame must be at the same frame rate, so, you have to use duplicates to make them last longer.)

In order:
-Darkness
-Reading (looking right, left, right, etc.)
- "?!" appears from the side
- "!" Emote is shocked
- Emote presses flashlight button
- Waits for flashlight to turn off
- repeat.

Several layers were used to make this (in Paint.NET), including one for the body, three for the eyes, two for the hands, one for the flashlight beam, two for the exclamations, one for the "clicking" sign, and one for the book. This took me a little over an hour to do.

:D Enjoy!

That is awesome! :) and... so accurate! One of the happier days of my life: when I got one of those book-lights you clip to the binding.... awesomeness.

I've made 1 GIF before, and I used a website to put it together. The original was made in Windows Movie Maker... 

Anyway, the only problem I have with it is the same as everyone else :XD: the little '?!' part flashes by too fast..
