Pantsuit Shimmy

While watching the first presidential debate I thought it would be fun to make a gif out of Hillary Clinton’s mid-debate shimmy. I didn’t get around to it until today. After the FBI’s recent disclosure of new emails, I decided to add a boxer’s punching motion to Hill’s shimmy, as when she is at her lowest, she continues punching away.

A one second loop, I drew the majority of my artwork in Adobe Illustrator and imported into Adobe After Effects. The arms and legs were built and animated in AE’s shape layers. – Joe Gast
