Clarity and Overlapping Ideas

Well this is my "finished" animation and my idea for the new animation.

This story board feels still a bit unclear, so I'll explain, person picks and throws dead body!

God I haven't updated this for ages... My project is "finished" though there is soooo much it would like to improve it, man one day I will finish a project and think "yes I did all it could be done"

On other news I found a new way to hurt animation mentor's beloved character Stewie, this is my plan....

Walk-Through a Shot

Well I was decided my first assignment for the term, a very simple gag: A Sunday golfer tries to hit the ball but he hits a puppy by mistake, I made a basic storyboard acting the main poses of this short piece.

Soon enough I'll have a block test laying this animation

End of term

I have been really busy in my last two weeks, so I didn't have much time to publish posts... anyways here is my latest progress reel,

09 Timing and spacing

Well this week I stated splining my animation this is what I done so far... the last steps feel a bit light to me...

Arcs and Path of Action

Alas my final result, again there is some stuff to improve, I could tweak the secondary animation on the hands and make the head more stable, and perhaps exaggerate some positions, but it's fine for now :)

And the torso was made, it's ironic that it was animated when I had a massive back pain and could not move it :P

The block test for the legs of my tap dance sequence, I hope to have the torso fully done By tomorrow!

Walk-Through - Blocking to Final

After a long painful week I polished the animation, the "last 10%" I never though I would make it...

I'm still not happy with some minor details but It's time to move on and start working on my next piece
