Moving to Spline

This next week we'll start planning our new shots and finishing this one up. Here is my submission for critique. There are lot more tweaks for this, so lemme know what you see with those fresh and beautiful eyes of yours!

180 Block Plus

Here we have a set of revisions from the last block. Some tweaks in foot placement and even the weight shifts. Also, I've begun adding in the Squash'n'Stretch and taken the Y-Trans to spline (as per Mentor recommendation at this point).

I think this will end up coming closer to spline as the week goes on and transition threw Block Plus over the weekend. Anyhow, time to step away and let it simmer... Holler your thoughts!

180 Block

Here is the blocking of my 180 shot for the week. At this point, it could completely change direction (heh- 180) once I get the feedback from my mentor. So it's time to "let it lie."

"Wanna get a motel room tonight? See what I did?
I didn't let it lie- I said I would, and I didn't..."

The Blocking IP

So here is the IP of my turnaround. Basically, I'm going for that standoffish/stubborn storm off. Lemme know what you see... There's still time to add a bunch more breakdowns... :)

Weight Shifts

This week marks the beginning of some more advanced hip studies and weight shifting. Here are some thumbnails of a 180 animation I'll be working on in the next few weeks...



To try out a few other things, I messed around with some traditional animation leg lifting...

UPDATE: Term 1

Today marks day one of Term 2. I continue to work on the assignments from the 1st Term... Here's the current status of that progress...
