Lecture 7: Introduction to walk cycle animation

7 May, 2018 (Week 7)

On the seventh week of class, Mr. Hafiz introduced us about a walk cycle animation. We were asked to video our walk cycle. He suggested us to make it exaggerate so that it will be easier to animate.

Tutorial 8: Observe walk cycle of animals in Farm in the city 

14 May, 2018 (Week 8)

On the eight week of class, we were taken to the Farm in the city to look around the animals and choose one animal that suit you for us to draw and animate it.

Tutorial 9: Consultation to walk cycle animation

21 May, 2018 (Week 9)

On the ninth week of class, Mr. Hafiz approached us one by one and showed him our outcome. As for my outcome, I have problem with the leg where then Mr. Hafiz help me visualize it through drawing. He told me to make the 3/4 view walk cycle easier, I need to draw the side view walk cycle and then translate it to 3/4 view. He also mentioned a complete walk cycle needs to have minimum of 6 frames, So, I did what he exactly suggested us to do.

Upon revising my walk cycle animation, I am still having a hard time doing perspective angle and for that I need a lot of practice.
