Work In Progress: Walk and Dance Animation practice
🕑 Added 2022-06-24 23:01:01 +0000 UTCHello dear patrons,
this time I wanted to practice one of the most basic animation exercise: the walking cycle. I fortunately had good guidelines from Richard Williams's book "The Animator's Survival Kit". I however made some mistakes the book actually covered and wasted a lot of time as a result. I realized the arms movement in the walk animation were impossible and tried to correct it many times. It's been fixed in the end but I feel in the end result the arms are moving a bit too fast... the dancing animation was inspired from a famous nerd dance and made in a single pass. It's pretty stiff and need some more time in the oven if I want to make it look closer to the source inspiration.
I understand if you think these sketch animations aren't exciting to watch but I think working on the fundamentals is something that will greatly help me do better animations in future. The more I practice, the more I realize how little I know about animating.
Seeya.

it might not be "exciting" but it something you need to do to improve is practice and learn from mistakes
