    Recreating animation from SNL “What My Girl Says”

    Posted by Ryan Radford on November 25, 2013 at 4:12 am

    I’m looking for some advice on how to animate various images in the same style as the scene from the SNL “What my girl says” video.

    I’m assuming there’s a WAY easier way than keyframing out each images movement, scale, orientation, etc.

    Thanks!

    [Ryan Radford] “I’m assuming there’s a WAY easier way than keyframing out each images movement, scale, orientation, etc.”

    How about keyframing one, then either duplicating, offsetting in time, and replacing the content on the duplicates, or using Dan Ebberts’s Follow the Leader [link] technique?
