I've finally started animating on a 3rd year project. I say finally because I've spent all year doing design work and pre planning that it's nice to actually do some animating for a change and as 3D animation is what I want to do this is a good project and I'm enjoying it.
The first scene that I worked on was this:
This proved to be quite fiddly as I was still trying to work out the best way to animate using this rig. What I did here was to move the whole model including the world control rather than making the hare hop away from his original position. Basically what this means is that's it's effectively a hope cycle that is being dragged across the scene. This was a mistake. I have now had to go back and animated the feet frame by frame so they don't slide around when he lands so it's proved to be very time consuming with poor results. I know better next time! Other than that I'm fairly pleased with this as a first attempt and I'm looking forward to seeing this rendered and in the final film.
The second shot that I've been working on is this one:
I'm really pleased with this, I feel like I've got some good emotion into the character as well as believable movement. It was obviously a lot simpler than my previous shot and I had fun with it. And it only took a day which is good as it means I'm speeding up which is something I've been worried about in the past.
