Hello again animators of all kinds! And also guests of honour!
OK so its week ten of class two, I am having some real difficulties in this animation, looks like I am not quite hitting the mark, and I think the biggest problem was the arcs in the hips, my mentor is telling me that I am not hitting it :(. I totally agree with my mentor, my hip arcs are just not working, and I think its a reflection of my blocking, again goes back to how important the blocking stage of animation is, I feel the more you can add in the blocking the better your animation be and less time you will have to spend on the last hundred metres to the finish lines.
Another thing I learnt from this week was the study of video references, I really wished we had this lecture at the start of the class it was really good, in that the lecturer Rick 'O'Conner gave a real detail on how to study video references, and would have been awesome to have known that earlier in the class. I think eventually you will probably just get acting choices from video references and not really rotoscope it, but in order to understand the body mechanics and how to make the breakdowns in between key poses, you really have to go through this method. Now I really wish I had more time to start over again with this animation exercise.
Cheers for dropping by, and I will keep you fellas posted :).
preety nice man
