Homework for 8/15

I will grade based on the following:
  • Craftsmanship: Clean lines? Solid transitions?
  • Timing of your ball bounce: (Too fast? too slow?)
  • Spacing of your ball bounce: (Positioning of your drawings. Remember to check the easing of your animation's movements!)
  • Clarity of storytelling: Are we beginning to push away from your animation simply being a ball bouncing across the screen?  Is it becoming something new?
  • Environment staging, color choice and pallets: Does your color scheme feel arbitrary, or does it supplement the "story?" Does the stage enhance the storytelling as well?
--------------------------------------------

Homework for (9/15):

1.  BRING 3 COMPLETED WALK CYCLES TO CLASS!

132-163: Advanced walks.

164-216: special walks and jumps

217-255: flexibility

256-272: weight



273-284: anticipation



Read THE SECTIONS IN BOLD (extra sections will help with you walks)

WALK CYCLE PROJECT:
  • Accuracy of Figure Drawing
  • Clarity of Walk Cycle:  Is the movement and motion clear?
  • Solidity of volume and modeling: Is the character "on model?" (meaning: are the proportions for your character right?)
  • Craftsmanship

  • Extra Credit (Storytelling):
    • Excessive Craftsmanship!
    • Color!
    • Environment! (If your walk cycle is already moderately successful!)
    • Giving your raw figure a character design!
