AN03 - Third Assignment Wk.4&5

Guys!  I can't believe I forgot to make a blog post last week and the beginning of this week.  In my defense, I've been busy with school/work/trying to find a place to live.  Anyway, this post will just have both of my spline passes so far as oppose to one.

Alright, here's my first spline pass...

There were definitely issues with this one.  Some being that halfway though the box stopped looking heavy, and then the box looked like it was sliding, then falling off the table, which doesn't make sense.

Now here is the second spline pass that I submitted on Sunday...

With many critiques from my mentor and, well as the Animation Mentor community, I think I was able to add that weight to the box again.  As well as fix the box sliding off the table issue at the end.  Oh I also submitted a soccer (futbol) pose to an Animation Mentor contest they are having since the World Cup is happening.  The link to the contest is here http://blog.animationmentor.com/the-world-animation-cup-2014/ and here is the image that I submitted...

Have a great rest of the week everyone!

AN03 - Third Assignment Wk.3

Why hello there!  So last week I had a little less time to work on my assignment than I normally do (my family and I had a little stay-cation here in Orlando woot woot!) so I had to get all of the blocking plus pass of my animation done by Friday evening.

---

For this blocking plus pass, I decided to follow what I did with the last assignment where I converted the animation to the first pass of spline.  I think it turned out to be a decent first pass at spline.  I was having difficulty conveying the heaviness of the box in some places so that will be something to really focus on this week.  Here's the playblast of what I submitted...

I hope you guys all have an amazing rest of your week!
