Walk Cycle - Week 4

This week we started doing walk cycles. We used the Max model from last week and over the week I had been getting used to all the controls on the model and being able to bring Max to life.

I had done a walk cycle animation back in my second year at college however I can remember that it was very rushed due to time and was aniamted alright. When I looked back on the ainmation I can easily find lots of corrections needed to be done and that I can learn from.

Coming to doing the animation with the Max rig all the tips and tricks that I learnt form college slowly came back to me. At first I started with just animating the legs and once I had all these done, I added a quick simple movement to the arms and head. I also aniamted his eyes blinking so he looked more alive. Here is a video of the animation.
