Thought i'd upload animation not worth putting in the portal to see what people think of them.first thing
hope you enjoy!
prcticing 3D rotations, check it out here
Please comment and give me feedback on all my animations where possible, and the ones that have been submitted to the portal.
Here is a turning body and head.

enjoy.
I like how you're doing exercises, it really helps in the long run. Overall, there's some nice effort going into them, but you've left in some major hiccups that could be fixed pretty easily. Such as the string in the paddle animation, or the table legs in your object rotation. Remember, anything worth animating is worth spending time on, if it doesn't look right, it isn't.
I think you'd benefit from reference material in your studies as well, if you have a digital camera try quickly filming what you want to animate and study how it moves.
I like what you've done here, keep at it and keep practicing!

yeah i saw the string it actually should look like this, so i'll re-upload the right version, as for legs I see what your saying.
Thanks for the feedback.

Oh dude nice! I would inbetween it, but you improved a lot from that run cycle.
AND IN ONE WEEK.

Her is a turning head a little bit choppy:

One thing that helps me is if i don't really animate the face 'Skeleton' i just draw where everything is going to go.
At 2/4/10 05:14 PM, flashero wrote: I don't really get you.
Like lets say the face is going from Right to left, First i draw the face facing right obviously then i draw the face like it's staring at me then a draw it at the left. after that i draw the inbetweens in red and then i make a new layer draw all of the frames then inbetween it some more.
Does that make sence?
he means animating the blue skeleton is pointless
Not really pointless i use it as a guide line.
oh well everyone gets the idea, if only there was an edit button!
My first attempt at a BG A little animation of a guy appearing, I'd love some critique so I can improve my backgrounds.

This site has almost everything you need to know about walk-cycles. It's a good place to start.
NIce practice runs i would post mine but i really have no idea where there buiried in my 50000 uncatagorized tests.
Paddle and ball was great for your first full thing
need programmers for game. pm me if your interested.

thats just the title of the link
the walk cycles arent looking good so far ,draw a flat line to work on to start with and work by going through keyposes until the timing is right first then work on inbetweens , good to know your practicing though !
i agree

Cheers for the tips on the walk cycle, I might another one in a moment. Yeah the tree don't look so good, I agree with you.

You got the animators survival kit eh?
Well what i do with walk cycles is draw a green line where i want the feet to walk. then i draw each fram progressing from left to right.
Basically i wouldn't animate it within a movieclip and then tween it, it looks bad.
I am so hip.
O didn't animate in a movieclip, I just did bad spacing

Well what i meant by that is don't animate in place, it ends up looking bad.

Yeah I got you the first time, it's only good if you want to walk on the spot or games.
