Jump Update

Well, I've finished inbetweening the rest of this jump. I won't say it's finished, because there's a pop in the arms that I'd like to go back and fix.

A new jump

I'm doing another jump exercise from Richard Williams' book. I chose to use a chubby character to have fun with squash and stretch. Here are the key poses plus a few inbetweens at the start. Updates to come.

Sketchy

I sat for a bit at Starbucks to draw the gestures (mainly focusing on weight and balance), and a few faces of the high-dollar coffee crowd.

Keep Moving.

To all of my many, many (0-5) readers, I have some exciting news. As it gets warmer outside and the urge to be anywhere but inside rises, I've realized that sticking to my practice is going to be difficult. But have no fear. I plan to re-read "The Animator's Survival Kit", and "Character Animation Crash Course" and animate most of the exercises as I go through. My goal is to have a decent Demo Reel by the end of Summer. I've also made it my responsibility to draw/sketch daily. I'll be sure to post the progress of my tribulations.
