Exploring relationships between variables has been interesting this week and challenging at the same time.

For the self portrait animation, I chose to implement jiggly eyes which seem excited to see someone. This involves a quick to and fro motion of the eyes which involves both, a positive and a negative relationship to the starting point as the eyes quickly move in opposing directions.

This animation was created using the random function where Var X was defined to be the start point and random was added to X with a +ve -ve range for the eyes to quickly go to and fro.

From the perspective of the origin it is a left-right movement along the X axis. the position is offset by 0.35 to give it a wiggly appearance rather than a drastic motion.

While the end goal was achieved, I need to figure more ways to make the animation smoother and more convincing.

Animations and Variable Relationships seem quite difficult to begin with but I am starting to get the hand of it. Definitely need more practice!
