ok to start we were set i think a simple walk cycle to ease us into the course again and try and get us back into animation in 3d. not a very interesting topic but ive learnt since ive got to add a little spice to my projects to make them feel more like mine and have something funny or original about it. so my first two tasks were lets say mediocre in standard, a reasonable amount of time spent on them, but no way near as much is i do now on my projects.
so the walk cyle is shown here, nothing special like i said before, mainly because before this year i wasn't interested in animation process itself, im more of a modeler. and to be honest was afraid of the software more than anything, never used the dope sheet really, or graph editor..omg how can you live without it now lol.
not much can be said about it to be fair its average
onto the lifting a weight..oh wasn't this fun. it all went well until the lift itself, its far to robotic and just generally pants, but im deliberately picking out the bad things so i can show myself where i need to improve. after seeing Pete's lift on a Monday long ago, i could clearly see his work was far superior to my own and anyone else s work, people may disagree but that's my opinion.
this was in fact the moment in which i went up a gear. well several really, ive gone full steam ahead on my projects, trying to get them finished to a high standard, and to have some more time to do other things that aren't in the course, such as outside modeling competitions and so forth.But not only did i start enjoying the course more i feel Ive gained a lot of knowledge of the software packages and just animation as a whole, i think Ive really improved recently and i feel a lot better for it. i would never have thought from last year that id actually be saying i enjoy the process of animating but with the later projects i really have.
