Class 3 Week 2

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.
