So its week 7 and our
assignment was to animate the 1-leg character doing a jump and then coming to a
settle. This assignment didn't sounds too hard, and I thought it was easier then
tailor was, but I still had some difficulty. Work has been very hectic lately
now that we are in crunch time for the movie, so it was hard to find time to
have a ready version available to post on the forums for feedback. However, I
did receive some feedback, which I am very grateful for, so thank you! Below is
a movie with all of my reference and planning, from snapshots of myself doing a
jump, to my sketch, to a flash test and grease pencil test, and then my final
animation. My animation is a bit different than the initial planning because
when I shot my reference I noticed I hopped back a little bit after the contact.
However, I wanted to add more to it so decided to use the momentum to bring the
character forward. Anyways, here it is!
Enjoy!
