Term 1 Walk Cycle Before and After.

During Term 1 of this course at Animation College. We were asked to do a walk cycle with shape tweening. I found it very difficult when i did it because for some reason it kept shifting in the middle of the animation (i still passed it but it bothered me a lot in the back of my mind) During the weekend that passed after doing a walk cycle from scratch, it made me understand the construction of a walk cycle a lot more so took a look back at the animation and instantly found the errors i made in the construction and as soon as i fixed it worked out :) here is a before and after.

 tried to get the gifs to play at the same time...didn't work out hahaha
Before.








After.

Walk Cycle Animation: Final.

Here is a cleaned up and semi coloured animation of my walk cycle! You can probably tell i went for my first and main idea haha but this time it actually worked out really well! The mustache was a little bonus to give the character more life in a little way i think without to much detail :)

Walk Cycle Animation: Mind Map and Thumbnails.

For the walk cycle animation it was quite hard for me to come up with 5 different ideas. I don't know why but when it comes to planning i struggle a little, so when i have an idea i just want to go for it instead of coming up with other ideas but i am going to train myself to have different ideas because i feel it will be for the better when it comes to future projects and/or employment. For example the last animation i did with the FX was not my main idea it was a random thing i threw together just so i had 5 ideas for the assignment and it turns out i ended up going with that one and it turned out great and i love it! Anyway here is the Mind Map and Thumbnails for my Walk Cycle.

When you're not aloud to swear around kids.

I got home the other day from course and it was late and i got this random idea that popped into my head where i remember i time when i visited my little cousins i couldn't swear around them and one day i swore then i swore because i swore and so on. I am pretty sure you get it haha but anyway here is a simple little comic i made about it :)
