Tri6 Week4

For week four Hai and Myself continued working on all the animation, we are aiming to get all shots to spline by milestone due in Week 6. Jimmy continues with shot 1 and the close up shot of the egg.

Andrew Silke (animator from animal logic) came in to look at our work. He gave us some positive feedback and helped me out with some of my animations. Suggesting some more expressive poses and giving them a more cartoony feel using a technique which he called "ramping". Where for example in my run cycle keeping the over all timing of the cycle the same but changing the spacing of the frames within. To emphasis a light characters run he should appear in the air longer than on the ground. by bunching up the keys when he is on the ground and spreading out the keys when he is in the air it gives this impression. Of course this only really works with cartoony styles.
