Dearmad Posted June 30, 2004 Share Posted June 30, 2004 The first time I really went to town for an animation in AM- and I mean REALLy went at it- channel editing and everything, I remember a moment when my wife walked past me, took a look at what I was doing and sneered. I mean she really audibly sneered too. You know: "Tsh..." I didn't understand what could have caused her reaction- but she thought that what I was doing looked so *ugly* that she couldn't understand how anything interesting or even amusing could come out of it... So now, sometimes I sit back, load up ALL the channels to a character in a scene and sort of look at them... they really are sort of beautiful to me; hard to believe I'm responsible for all those lines and that something known as "character" can come out of them. And that I might spend a few hours tweaking the position of the little dots until they're juuuust right.... without even looking at the 3d representation- you just get to know them to some extent. Cool stuff to me.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D.Joseph Design Posted June 30, 2004 Share Posted June 30, 2004 LOL! That's kind of similar to what I was seeing while placing the 3,223 rubber duckies that were eventually cutout to 1,916. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dearmad Posted June 30, 2004 Author Share Posted June 30, 2004 Yeah now *DAT'S* what I'm takin 'bout!!! LOL Brings me back to my Polyray days.... Here's a sample of a script: All text- and does probably some silly mechanical looking piece of animation which was the best I could do at the time! I can't take credit for typing it all in- I modelled in Moray, then exported the script, then used a utility I programed to calculate the math for inbetweens in two scenes where things moved... I'm getting a headache just thinking about it now. T1TWN7.DOC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iham Wrong Posted June 30, 2004 Share Posted June 30, 2004 Hehe, go back and try that in v8.0. It's kinda amazing how much better the channel and key control is in v10+. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
