LAUAN503 : Study Task 5: Walk this way - Walk cycle

Any interaction with 3D animation has always been fascinating to me, and doing thi walk cycle is no different. The process was much more straight forward than I thought, and with the help of Richard William's template , the walk came out looking really good, with an extra added to it by myself. Also doing it really help me to memorize the correct pattern of the walk which will help me alot in doing future cycles, as well as boosting my confidence in doing 3D in general. However , I find that the lack of onion skinning makes its a bit difficult to properly place the movement pose, which resulted in the character sliding out of their position in some cases, perhaps that is something to look at later when have the chance




LAUAN503 - Weekly update for week of 4/12/17

This has been the week for the "big final push" in getting the line animation done, as a result, only 1 scene on my part is left. There's 2 more scene for the shark and the wave scene which is being done by other members. But overall I'm very confident that The line animation will be finished by the end of next week , and ready for image sequence export for colouring over Christmas break. After the finalisation of the line animation , I'll also take a step back from the production , and focus on providing support if needed for my team mates


Finished "Act 2"
