Getting ready for AnimationMentor, I'm refreshing my skills with a tutorial by Jason Ryan, I just finished the 2D animation(planning stage) using flipbook, should've been just a stick figure but I got dragged with my passion to draw... I really enjoyed it... I just love to draw more than fixing curves in the graph editor!!!
I also feel I understood the principles of animation more after this exercise... squash & stretch, overlap & follow through, opposite action...etc
now I'm ready to start blocking this shot in Maya, I have 4 weeks before I start AM, so its gonna be 2 weeks of blocking, 2 weeks of polishing, pretty much like most of AM's assignments...
This image bellow shows the simple sticky figure for this tutorial
