walking in maya

The strikes are really effecting us students. So many people from class don't know what to do or how to do the work. Luckily Johnny posted a handout on blackboard for walking and with the timing challenge he had asked us to do i had an idea of how to approach this challenge so i went in the steps that he instructed. Starting with sliding and then adding the y movement and finally rotation. hips and head would be last thing i would add. Following the hand out was quite confusing especially considering that Johnny hadn't gone through it with the class by the time I had a go at it.

Devil and demons - turnaround and emotions

disclaimer i lost my bag which had the rough 10 sketches as well as the poststick nots for the old lion and the fox, ive redone both but the orginals were much better  I've been really enjoying these tasks that Annabeth has been setting us, this being no different. After to speaking to a few people the character that people liked the most was actually my favourite too. I has missed the lecture that this was assigned to us but there was enough information on blackboard to go off that I was lost on what to do. While doing the turnarounds I came to the unfortunate realisation that I was struggling with getting my character to look consistently like its self from different angles. I'm guessing this was the point of the task and this is one of the reason I'm loving this course because I know how much I have to progress and these tasks are shining a light on them. It's a bit sad because personally I like it and I know that's what it takes to improve but on the ...

Animation Context

The first actual lecture of university was what i expected, a briefing of our first module. Most of the lecture consisted of Johnny beating the Gibbs' reflective cycle into our heads. I can see why the university wants us to utilize this type of reflection and I will definitely refer to it when I am first writing up my blogs, but in time i know that i will have each area of the cycle memorized, which can only help in my writing skills and well as my own self analysis. This module is on going throughout the year and we are tasked with writing a magazine article about an aspect of animation we are passionate about. Initially my intimidate thought was to look at the animation technique of One Punch Man as it i know it is a particularly difficult style of animation and i captures movement and speed so vividly. I do believe i should do some wide ranging research and look at other animation techniques that intrigue me.

Where is the group??

Since the group got divided, the groups harmony has just been non existent. I know Poli and Maddy are waiting to the animation but I find it really frustrating that they're not being involved in helping create the scenes. If Indya had her way we would of scrapped that they wanted, which was Maddy's dog and Polis positive message. I've been trying to come up with a way that we could get the dog involved in the actual animation, and my initial idea was that the homeless dude spends his money on his friends; a pack of dogs.  This was inspired by the story of Dobri Drobrev Indya wasn't too pleased with idea and wanted something more hard hitting. So I then suggested the idea of 'hats for the homeless' in which the character spends his money on hats for other homeless people, this idea was inspired by the subway campaign of trading in gloves for a free sub.  Again Indya wasn't too pleased with the idea so we were in a bit of a block. After s...
