NoSeRider gave you some good crits. i'll see what i can pick out. 1st. it doesn't really look like he's swinging a heavy object. also, the weight shift looks strange, because you're not delaying the foot enough. when you jump, or step off the ground like he is, your leg should be fully extended on the last frame before you…
Sorry Oxy, I think I may have misconstrued myself a bit. When I wrote the bit about the burden of this kind of information, that wasn't targeted at you as being the bearer of bad news. The comment was more generally about an inescapable feature of the information age. These days nearly anyone can turn on the television,…
Yep. Max has some decent modeling tools and workflows but it's really fallen behind in terms of animation and for studios that have anything other than a bare bones animation pipeline, they are going to pick software that is more than likely to support their full pipeline in a way that works for every department not just…
1) No, copyright was born out of censorship back when the printing press was new. They took the power to print books away from the public and imposed strict approval systems to prevent people from printing anything that might be seditious. Stationers were given the sole power to print books under the law. If you wanted to…
don't worry, you have a good headstart it seems and in a couple years you surely make top art What I see from your site is that you understand complex modeling and proportions seem to be pretty good and you generally are good with the technical parts, so I would take less time in future thinking about modeling, and spend…
Ok, this is longwinded to the extreme. I am probably going to publish this on my website as a paper after getting some feedback from you guys. I have been thinking long and hard about this, and I figured the best way to figure out how I stand is to write it down. Here we go. Priorities Regardless of your field, if you are…
The Succinct Summary: Can someone give me some reassurance, and a framing of what exactly is going on in my life at the moment? Or if this is the reality, or what IS the reality, of this career I chose? Because I feel somewhat lost in this small ditch of patience. And solutions if anyones got any. [Word of warning, I'm…
thx for the tip giovannyarce random thoughts: yesterday i went to visit my old drawing teacher and an old classmate used to go drawing as a kid every Saturday, best day of the week so was great to see my teacher again, and did a lineart drawing from life but damn I was so bad, my proportions were all mixed up, and since…
before this rant im about to go on its a good idea to post Peter Moores pretty decently worded response to this: http://www.mcvuk.com/news/read/ea-voted-worst-company-in-america-peter-moore-responds/0113754 .......Aaaaaaaaand here we go: Holy fucking LOL. first off if you have never worked for them, you really have no…
I'm going to have a strange perspective on this topic. Some of you will balk at it. I don't really care. Think about it this way, would you be doing this sort of creative work [3d/art work] regardless of the pay? Are you psychologically broken in some basic foundational way that means you cannot fathom spending your time…
