Oh, Oops, I didn't do a cycling because I thought I had to put it on a path afterwards, I just noticed that I was wrong. I could had just made it stationary, oh well. Thanks for the comments, I really need someone to tear this thing up for me, anything blatantly wrong with it?

Sorry about the gray, I fixed it. As for the forefoot, I dont really get what you are saying, what do you mean by "slap"? Are you saying his for does too much of a crossover? Thanks for your help.

Thank you, the reason for the choppyness is that I have to may keyframe, I need to let the computer do some of the work for me I guess. Is there any part of it that really sticks out?

Side view Thanks! Side2.mov

I'm looking for some critiques for my first walk. I decided I didnt want to do it with a cycle. Perspective.mov

Thanks Robert, I see what you mean, when he's pulling his leg up he's going back not forward. Thank you.

I had a couple of hours yesterday. I made a quick, "step" animation, I would say it's done. But I'm still looking for critques. Comments? Block.mov

Thanks from now on I will do my posting in the student forum.

Sure, but would I be able to post it in Boot Camp #1, I'm not really following the program (though I will).

Ah, I see on the second bounce is squishes as much as on the first. Funny how I don't notice these things. Thanks

That always happens to me, I'll try and fix it.

Had some spare time today. Put together this little animation. I wanted to try out some squash and stretch techniques. What do you think? Squashing.mov

Wow thanks I will get started!

I think it's just some pixilation from compression

Got it to work! I had to put it in Final Cut Express then export it out again. Enjoy.

I posted it again and it's still not working, does anyone have any ideas? Vash, don't get your hopes up, this is my first animation. It's just a ball, bouncing, then it bounces some more. It's just a couple seconds long, no dynamics were used.

Grrrr, this happend before when I tried to post it. I will try to get it to work. I'm re rendering it as we, erm, speak?

"You've never seen a ball bounce like this"-AO Scott, New York Times "Two Thumbs Up"-Ebert & Roeper "Filled with shock, suspense and special effects this is the year's must see movie"-Sid Smith, Chicago Tribune "Visually Stunning"-Eric Harrison, Houston Chronicle It's attached for all who want to see. Seriously, as much as I wanted to jump in and do my Pixar like, Emmy Nominated, Four Star, SIGGRAPH standing ovation, tour de force of a movie I took advice from some animation books (and animators on the web) to start with the obnoxious bouncing ball exercise. So I did. Feel free to comment. Note that I have not tried to put any rotation on the ball No dynamics were used. ballbouncerenderrerenderrerender.mov
