Day 31

Changed the song again, and scrapped a couple dozen frames, as I am going for a shorter animation over all, but at a higher quality for my own sanity.

Day 30

Doing the ENTIRE song is a mistake and way too much of a Bite to be Taking. I'm going to be at least halfing the amount og the song I'm going to "animate".

day 29

More planning towards the next steps of the animation.

Implemented the walk cycle into the actual animation, so now I have a filler for apart of the song I didn't know how to fill, I will most likely be adding more to the bit. Look at him go.

Day 27

I have figured out how to walk! As in I figured out that all that was wrong with my animation was an unnecessary in-between-frame, and a single line. The one line created so many problems for me that, I spent 3 days on this one cycle alone.

DAY 26

Image
I have a general Idea of the walk cycle, and I understand how the torso should move in a forward facing form, but the legs, (see above), don't suit the actual movement. I'm going to try some alternatives for such things. Also the 3rd frame's shoulder pops out a lot.

Day 25

Working on a practice walk cycle based off of the Animation By Dingo doodles, trying to figure out just why it works, while drawing it out to figure the how. It is interesting how she does it, and her small in-between frames for lines of motion and slight changes to the hands help the movement.
