Pendulum Excersize

In my efforts to become better at animation, I have been going through some of the excersizes that the good people at Animation Mentor go through. The latest of these is the pendulum.

Newest Walk

This is my newest walk using some new techniques,

Standing From Chair

A quick animation of a man stading from sitting down. Still getting used to the rig...

Two Balls at Dinner

Just a little excersize still using the same ball rig.

Moody Walk

Just another practice walk, this one a little moody.

Start-up Animations

Well it's the start of a new unit. Finally time to get down to some serious animation. As with most animatoin warmup excersizes it's time to bring in the bouncing ball. We had to animate several balls to get used to using Maya for animation.

The following animation were tweaked briefly after a dailies session.


Bouncy ball going down some stairs...

Heavy ball and a light ball...




First ever Maya walk...
