Mootion to MagicAnimate -- image to video Backflip

I used Mootion and MagicAnimate for free, to make drawing 49 from my book do a backflip:

Mootion to MagicAnimate -- Backflip

I learned about this from Matt Wolfe in his YouTube video: An EXPLOSION of AI Video is Happening Right Now:

• MagicAnimate
• Mootion

1)  I entered -- /motion prompt:"back flip" character:"bot" inplace:"false" -- in Mootion, and generated two versions in Discord:

Mootion

Mootion generated two versions

of "backflip" in Discord

This gave me one video file of two versions of "backflip." I then asked Mootion to give me a "rock star" doing a back flip with the second version:

generated in Mootion

Mootion also gave me two FBX files, and I chose to use the second version to animate my drawing:

• back_flip_1_bot.FBX
• back_flip_2_bot.FBX  (2.79 MB)

2)  I downloaded the video and cropped out only the second version in EzGif -- to make an MP4 file of only one motion animation

3)  I uploaded both the cropped second video MP4 file, and the drawing 49 from my book, to MagicAnimate in Hugging Face:

I uploaded the high rez version

of Drawing 49

from my book

MagicAnimate created an MP4 video file, after maybe a half hour wait:

We drew at the Edith Bunker in Albuquerque, with Monty Singer and Brian Gonzales.  This was the second of a two day pose (see the first day):

SAME POSE,

Different Day

Below is a comparison between today's drawing and the drawing from the day before -- today's drawing was 12 x 18, whereas yesterday's drawing was 9 x 12:

Cody Kamrowski recommends the Mitsubishi pencil sharpener KH 20, as it seems to sharpen charcoal pencils without breaking the fine point:
