Planing and Blocking
Analyzing the changing of direction and bounces of my tail-ball
Blocking changing direction bouncing ball
First Video
Hey everyone this is my plan and my first video of my bouncing ball, feedback is much appreciated.
After rethink and reevaluate my last animation, where I made many big mistakes in several important points such as, key pose, squash and stretch and smooth out the bounce ball´tail I decided start my animation from scratch. In fact I really concert about the steps that I have to follow to faces all theses problems.
Final Video of bouncing tail-ball
Hi everyone this is my final video I expect I could improved a lot in my bounce ball´tail animation, I got a feel that the answer is yes.
How you can watch I made this animation much smooth out in the movement of the tail with clearly key pose. Also stretch and squash in the impact of the ball on the floor. Additionally with a lot momentum in the second bounces.
In the third bounce, I played with the time and spacing. Where the character moved fast in a short time. Creating in the animation a little be of contrast.

looking good, I would adjust the angle of the camera to be a little more side on to see all the bounces clearer. Timing early on seems to be fine (with some refining).
ReplyDeleteThe bounce over the last hurdle may need more of a build up. More height with the proceeding bounces to give the feeling of momentum. This would probably mean the last few bounces will need adjusting to take this into account.
Looks great. Adjusting the camera to be more side on would show the squash and stretch for the bounces, and how they change as your character jumps over different sized hurdles. The bounces over the hurdles are more important to see than the final bounces slowing down. Cheers, Laura
ReplyDeletebounces look good but the tail is a little stiff.
ReplyDeleteball bounces very fast on the last bounce and quite slow at the beginning of the first two bounces. the last bounces are getting there but overall their needs to be alot more work done
