11 Second Club - Animations |
September 2008 - ------- (Rated: 3.33)
Well after a solid critique last month I am tackling this month with
renewed vigour. Rather than the gesturing of previous attempts I
am going to try to animate character. So this time I came up with a
story detailing the character of the participants and have animated as
closely as I can to that story. I did run out of time so the
animation isn't as polished as I would like.Well from the results it
seems people think my Animation sucks so I might give it a rest for a
while.

August 2008 - Hamming it up (Rated: 3.71)
A change for the 11 Second Club this month - we have our first foreign
language dialogue. This has forced me to do some pre-planning and
I've taken some reference footage as well (and I have a little story in
mind - so maybe this month will rate a little better.....) I also
opted for a change in character as the dialogue lends itself to a really
expressive face and Mancandy has that in bucket loads.

July 2008 - Demolition Expert (Rated: 3.55)
Everyone else seems to want to do little stories. I just wanted to
concentrate on character animation rather than outright story telling.
I did start the character behind a desk but Kenny Roy, an Animation
Mentor mentor 'suggested' that I remove the desk and see what I can do
with the whole body.Maybe I should do little stories - this one got
panned.........

June 2008 - Lost in the big apple (Rated: 4.60)
With the move to Blender and the release of the Big Buck Bunny project
from Peach, I decided to try my hand at animating the wonderful BBB
characters. This was good fun and I love the way these characters
are rigged.

November 2004 - Exasperated
(back in the 10 second club days)
Whilst waiting for Frank to critique Lesson 2, I decided to have a stab at a
10 Second Club animation exercise.
Using KeeKat (ReelFX), a free for use model on the A:M CD, I went ahead
using a combination of pose to pose and straight ahead.
I had problems with the rig but after 12 hours
and several passes had what I thought was a reasonable animation (my first
character animation). There are flaws but I was quite satisfied with
my attempt with my current level of experience and knowledge.
