  1. What ever happened to the ST original animation the this when SC was doing the Mohamed Ali impersonation. That was an excellent Animation?

    ???

     

    1st animation for this fight scene. I remeber us talking about it on the forum years ago I forget who animated it but you told me who it was. I will try to find it but SC was saying Mohamed Ali "Faster than a ? and stings like a bee " then check out my fancy foot work and was dancing around TW and goes between his legs. It was done really well and I fell out of my chair laughing when I saw it. I did find it a long time ago baried under the sets ground it was at Y zero and the set was way up int the plus Y and I thought we would just move it up but then we redid the script I guess? that scene would be good to add to out takes IMHO

     

    I think I remember animating that fight scene. I just looked on my harddrive and cant find it though.

    That was awesome animating for Bob Taylor that guy really really new his stuff. Nice guy too.

     

    I am not sure if it was even posted on the forum I remember seeing it while updating SVN and the title caught my eye and I had to check that .mov out and I really loved it. Very well done!!

     

    This is the thread were I asked about this and I found 1/2 SC motion but TW is standing still I remember it was done and Sc going under TW legs LOL

    Nope that wasnt me someone else must of animated that...

  3. There's 2.5 months of work, INCLUDING learning A:M!

     

    Wow, if thats only after 2.5 months I can't wait to see your stuff in a couple years!

     

    Nice work.

     

    As for the last shot I'll guess the guy getting into the truck.

  4. looks very very good - Your animations are always in my list to be studied. I love how the birds are animated, great choices and execution in acting. Lots of life, comedy, smoothedy.

     

    One thing that disturbs me is the "illusion" that the birds penetrate the woman's hair/head at the end. They may not in reality, but the first time thru my attention was drawn to it. I had to play the clip over and over to see if it was an illusion or not - and I'm still not sure. And yes I know you haven't animated the woman yet, but given the current relative sizes, it may be hard to combat that illusion.

     

    Thanks, There was some mesh penetration. I'm working on that now. They are pretty close but hopefully I'll be able to position them so at least it doesn't look like they are penetrating. Thanks for the heads up on that. Thats why I like posting the WIP to see what bothers people it's the same stuff that bothers the voters.

  5. I suppose the work flow would be

     

    -animate the girl's motions

    -put the birds on her shoulder with Paul's dynamic constraint idea.

    - bake that constraint result

    -then animate the gestures of the birds

     

    still tough though

     

    I wasn't having much luck getting the dynamic constraint to work, so what I did was lag the bird's hip translate constraint by about a half of frame

    and seemed to get pretty good results atleast for the up and down motion.

  6. "Bill". Ha ha! :D

     

    Looking very good! :)

     

    If she's actually going to be walking, the mechanics of those birds perched on her shoulders is going to be... really hard.

     

    You could try attaching a dynamic bone, pointing up, from both of the girl's shoulders and constrain the dodos' hips to them, setting the angle to something small and adjusting the amount of influence. It's worth trying but I'm sure you have all the bases covered anyway. All the examples of your animation that I have seen are beautifully dynamic.

     

    What is the sound track from?

     

    Looking mighty good!

     

    That is a good idea Paul. I had not even thought of using a dynamic constraint. Now the hips are just constained to the shoulder bones.

    Maybe I will try that if I have enough time before the deadline but like Robert said thats going to be tough so I will save that for last.

     

    The sound track is from the movie groundhog day.

  7. Just a thought, how about if she's a cat.

    Maybe that's a bit cliche. Hmmm.

     

    I'm not sure the birds would be so happy if she were a cat !

     

    Everyone can thank William Sutton for the Dodos.

    They were his contribution.

     

    Yeah, He did a great job on this model

     

    That looks promising!

    If you have some extra time could I get one of those video critiques you do?

  8. Here's what I have so far for the January 11 second club.

     

    Its a bit more challenging this month with three characters and their voices overlapping.

     

    The scenario is : A lady walking out of the pet store with a couple of Dodo birds she just purchased and they are all very happy.

     

    The lady will be clapping something in her hands during the clapping part but haven't thought of anything fitting yet.

    BTW those Dodo birds are cool models and they are on the extras DVD.
