Post the current version of your walk cycle to the server. Name it "lastname_V2." If you were absent, turn in a copy of your current walk cycle by Thursday@5! Everyone, no matter what, should have three versions of your walk cycle on the server by Monday! (1: The pencil test from last week. 2: The pencil test from this week. 3: The second revised pencil test that you will turn in Monday.) If you have less than 3 versions on the server, be advised that I will make additional revisions!
B.
Turn in an updated version of your walk cycle, with arms!
For full credit, add clothing onto your armature and turn it into a character! (eyes, nose, mouth as well!) Turning in a character without clothing will only earn you a B for this project (if everything!
C.
Come up with an idea for your next project! You will be creating a 6-8 second animation where a character does the following:
- Takes a couple steps forward.
- Interacts with an object (a prop of your choosing)
- Makes a decision based on their thinking
- Acts with respect to that decision, and gains new experience!
We will film reference for this animation on Monday, October Second! Please pay attention to your clothing choices for this action, so you are able to get reference for your film! Come up with an idea, and draw some sketches for your character. We will make model sheets on Monday in class!
D.
You MUST bring a prop to class! Make sure, whatever you bring, represents the object in question! I will bring some stackable boxes so we can make makeshift sets, for those of you that may have tables, chairs, and the like.
Extra credit opportunity:
1) Use what we learned about breaking the limbs of your characters to add more personality and flexibility to the arm movements of your walk! Be advised this is optional. I would much rather you turn in an amazing walk cycle, than trying to add new techniques you will continue to learn on Monday!
As always, if you have questions, don't hesitate to contact me at mshaw@mca.edu!
