Ok guys sorry for the late response. Thanks JR and jmg06. Until now I see with my own eyes that floatiness on my animations. Actually I am finding the representation of the mass and weight the most difficult tasks. @Alidium D: dat feedback. I have to admit that the jumping cycle is the one that I dedicated the less time.…
You have a bunch of twins you should try to break up. A twin is where you have two or more things synchronized exactly. In your jump, both feet contact and leave the ground at exactly the same time. Both arms look like they mirror each other. In the anticipation for the jump your character looks like he is off balance. He…
It's a good start. I'm not an animator, but I think that lack of weight it's being shown clearly on the three parts of your video. The guy is floating while running, and over the ball. And when he jumps, he's not landing as firmly as it should, considering his mass. From the little I studied about animation in the past, I…
Hey guys!! This is gonna be my first time posting an entire thread with something related to animation, so please have no mercy with my humble work here presented :) . Well a little of background story: This reel is the result of 4 months of a basic 3d animation course at my school at M
Probably is not a bad idea to go back to the basics, do some ball animations and restudy and enhance everything I know to hopefuly get some good results. Thx again for your commentaries people :D
When your character jumps the movement and the anticipation make you think he is making a big jump but when he jumps it's more like a little hop. You can also see this a little bit in the walk animation. He make very big steps but moves very slow. I hope you understand what I'm trying to say. :D Use a lot of video…
Congratulations on finishing your first demo reel! The good news is the hardest part is behind you! Future demo reels will only improve the more you put into them! However this reel needs some serious work I'm sorry to say. Honestly I would recommend going back to bouncing balls and very simple overlap exercises. If you…
