Animation Final Blog Post

 

This year I have spent a lot of time working on animations for this game project. It has been a massive undertaking, and I have learned a lot about first person animations and the need to limit frame times in order for animations to work for the game. The shotgun animation especially took a lot of work with the rig to get the shells to properly eject and switch parents in the correct way. It was a lot of fun to work on and I'm happy with how it all turned out.



Outside of this work I also worked on learning Blender this semester and made this animation which is my best work so far as an animator. My goal is to learn and start doing more combat animations. To that end I have begun to block out this fight sequence between Hella and Hornet.

Animation Week 2

  Walk Cycle Walk Cycle Walk Cycle. This week was about pain of walk cycles. I went through many remakes of this one working heavily with reference. I also ran into the issue of realizing my rig did not have an IK for the chest or head/neck which cause immense issues for this walk cycle. I will attempt a hopefully much easier redo with a rig that has IK chest/neck controls for the first few days of the week. I found a very solid referance from a fashion show clip that was extremely helpful and figuring our how to move the hips and legs properly although i do wish i had a side view as that was something I had to search elsewhere for which led to some struggles with the arms. The largest difficulty by far however was teh spine and getting it to move properly with lots of counter animation. definitely will make sure to find something with IK chest for the future for walk cycles.
