Delayed Update (1.7 and 1.8)

I was personally unhappy with my performance on the last assignment (Tailor). After watching the critique I understand why I was marked down and I am grateful for the the honest critique from Victor. I will make the suggested changes and hope that my grade increases.

This week is a "Vanilla Walk Cycle". After watching the lecture and doing the assignment I feel better than I did about last week's assignment. The rest of the work I have to do include making Physical Strength poses, but I have some questions for Victor about what qualifies for physical strength.

I have yet to find a way to publish my animation .mov files in Visual Lightbox. I may have to abandon the program and do it by hand :(

Class Updates (1.5 & 1.6)

I have as of yet figured out how to enable .mov files to be embeded in lightbox, so my animation assignments shall remain secreted away for now.

Last week's assignment was a lot of fun.. mostly. I missunderstood the directions of the assignment and halfway through the week had to completely do it over from scratch... twice. It was still fun. The first time I made the ball too cartoony and too much of a character. The second time I came up with a better way to go through the obstacle course and still use all the little platforms.

This week is overlapping animation. We get to play around with the pendulum model. I can't wait.
