3DArtZ Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Just remember.... less is more when you're doing body animation. that audio clip could easily be accompanied by practicaly zero body movement.... maybe just a change in body stance and a motion of the head....

Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted January 4, 2013 Hash Fellow Share Posted January 4, 2013 this dialog performance stuff is very challenging. Basic body movement notes I'd make... -never move the hips in straight line from one pose to another. Always dip them in the middle a little bit. 99.99% of the time this will look better and i haven't found the .01% where it doesn't yet. it's like a pendulum swinging fast through the bottom and slow at the ends. It's more complicated than that, but that's a starting tactic that always works better than a straight line. notes on hip movement http://www.hash.com/forums/index.php?showt...799&hl=hips - hips typically are not level while we stand. We typically support our weight over one leg and let the other side sag. Classic example: - the shoulders never move alone while the hips remain motionless. A good mime could do it but real normal people don't do that. Typically the shoulders will move to counter the hip movement (think a hula dancer). -In general we tend to slouch from one posture to another and stay in each one for a while rather than soothly morph between them with no pauses.
