Class 1 - Week 7




Week 7 and probably the toughest assignment to date....you think a ball with a tail is easy animate...think again! This week we had another two otpions to choose from, either animate a character with one leg bouncing across screen or animate Tailor bouncing a minumum of 3 bounces across screen showing you understand the concepts (Squash & Stretch, Timing, Spacing, Arcs and Overlapping)....it was a hard one but it was really fun.

Picked up some cool tips from Shaun about animating the tail, it is really cool finding out the different methods people use for their assignments. For this assignment i animated in layers...different to what i am use too but it is always to discover new ways of animating. Also this week had a Q&A with Mike Belzer who was an animator on the awesome movie BOLT...oh man i luv that movie and the Q&A was so cool. AM is so cool people, if ever you get the chance DO IT!
