Beacon DAL-3

posts are starting back up after a year+ of hibernation.

!!WARNING BAD SENTENCE LAYOUT!! (tired and over heated)

Things I'm going to try to answer- techniques used, experimenting?, references, what could I do better.

Bouncing Ball With Tail https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XG9xik90XhE

^ Squash&stretch followthrough drag; tried having the body rotate but decided not to as it felt off; the prier ball bounce ext gave me all the info for the ball bounce the tail was just done with reason; not sure, what can you add to a ball with a tail bouncing.

^ drag ?; tried doing the wipe lass effect without braking the elbow, the ease in is a bit rough on the effect but the ease out is good; I use my arm as reference for pulling the arm back up; the start of the up movement.

Jumping Ball With Legs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aEIOqqCUfwA

^ windup, followthrough; I don't recall experimenting with this one at all; class mates jumping; stop the toes from sliding on the jump. 

Backwards Step https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pbwIAA09-Cg

^ ?; added head movement to make it feel more organic; my and class-mates doing the action; animate the arms to look natural (just noticed the left arm does not move at all, possibly because I originally make it for the one armed mesh, facepalm.)

Picking Up A Box https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mo99QvSZyhg

^ windup a bit of followthrough; tried to making the lift movement 2 events, not to sure how well to turned out; I know I used something but I cant remember; make the transitions hold more wight.

OK so... where to start, .....changes lets start there.

Didn't change all that much it terms of shot angles or timing and wat not, the only mueger change was the rig getting updated and fixing the transjichens between poses, there where quite a tho flipping arms and head, easy to fix luckily.

The first pass on my Story board.

The current assortment of assets for my DAN210 pre-visualisation.

WEEK FIVE (its a lie the where done after weeks 6s post)

I decided to do some pose practise so I loaded up some bookmarks then picked a handfull by random, the result was these 5 images done in one sitting.

WEEK SIIX

WEEK FOUR drawings (still tardy)

1. so my original idea was to draw basically a cargo yard, though as you can see a other idea had set sail by the time I finished.

2. for a class exercise as most of you know we had to draw lines, not the most enjoyable thing but, o Hi Hoodini

3. I wanted to re draw one of the ships that I've draw once before but unfortunately it didn’t work out well because of the funky angle of the arms, so I simplified the design a bit and it turned out fine, so say hi to the deep mining squad.

4. not overly happy with the foreground in this one, mainly because it does’nt fit well with the background and the scale looks off in several spots.

WEEK THREE drawings (Taarrrdy)

1. decided to draw one of the character I've draw in the past aaannd, it was upside down :( ,I ended up going with it and it went well.

2. just some shapes, shading/gradients, unicorn party horn and egg head.

3. some memory and ref drawings of the corpus from “Warframe”

4. a battle worn ShadowDoll
