Run Cycle

Sooo it's been a very long time, just over a year actually since I've posted anything! CRAZY how quick time goes! So I'm back and working on a few thing's in the evenings after work. I've gone from Wales to England and I'm now living in Sweden which is pretty awesome :)

This is my first attempt at an anim for a few months, so I'm very rusty, it's crazy how you loose the flow of something if you haven't done it for a while, I've dearly missed animating, feedback would be awesome :)

Sorry about the bad video quality btw, I don't have Premier at the moment, I'm using 'Sony Vegas Movie Studio' so still working it out as I go!

Back to it!

It's been a while since I've able to animate or get online!
I've moved twice in the last month so finally settled!
So first things first, back to animating.
Haven't animated for over a month, suprising how hard it can be to get back into it.
Anyways I love animating animals so thought I'd give a dog walk a go first!
Will be uploading lots of stuff over the next few weeks, so keep an eye :D

Walk Of Confidence

Had a go at doing a confident walk!
Had trouble with the arms, not sure whats wrong with them!!
But heres it without the arms :)

If I manage to sort the arms i'll upload it again!

Digital Tutors!

Got myself a copy of Digital Tutors Animating Quadrupeds :D Very cool DVD!
This is what I managed to produce after going throught the tutorial :D

Production Begins!!!

Production on our showreels started yesterday :D Finally animating again...Pre-Production took a while!!
Anyway thought it would be cool to upload some of the work i've done since yesterday.
I'm aiming to upload my progress as I go along!

So far I've managed to block out two of my Stage 1 animations, a biped walk and a quad run!
I've literally just changed the curves on the biped from stepped to spline, so a lot of work needs doing to it! For the quad run I decided to try animating with my tangent handles set to flat for a change and it seems to look ok so far!

MotionBuilder!!

Been using a new software package in uni to animate with called MotionBuilder!
Thought i'd upload some of my work....well one for the time being...the deadlines tomorrow :S

Intro To Maya

Hey it's been a while since i've uploaded anything. Back in uni now so it's been busy.
Over the past three weeks we've been doing an Intro To Maya project. It's been so cool.
We've had to do a bouncing ball, bowling ball, cyclical animation and non-cyclical animations.
Only have my cyclical stuff on me at the moment but i'll upload eveything else soon. Bearing in mind this is the first time i've ever used Maya to animate :D
