I didn’t feel there was quite enough information in last week’s block, so I went back in and added some more to really nail down what’s going on. No Maya, you will not have control over my splines! This was the point I was at before I went into splining the animation:
And here’s the first run at splining the shot:
Here’s the blocking pass for my Stairs Run shot. The timing and ending need a lot of work. It’s very slow, Stewie is lacking urgency and the stumble at the end doesn’t work that well! Plenty of stuff to fix!
As I wasn’t happy with the end of my blocking last week (c3w2), I went away and shot some additional video reference to get a better idea of what happens after bashing through the door. Here it is along with new blocking pass stuck on the end:
The speed is much better, there’s a sense of urgency in the run and the door bash and stumble have been improved.
Hello! Finally caught up with all my updates so everything is now as it should be. I’m going to be making a concerted effort to keep it that way from now on! So, here is my near-complete assignment for this week. It’s meant to be my re-block from last week, but I’ve added so much flippin’ information (we’re talking mostly 2s here) that it’s almost linear anyway! ;)
So there you go! Hope you like it. I’m going to take a quick run at splining it before the hand-in tomorrow evening – what I’m hoping is that it isn’t going to be too tough because I’ve added all that detail! I’ll update you all tomorrow once I’ve done it and handed it in!
