Animation Workshop Feedback - Anonymous #8a (2023)

[Music] all right let's check this out let's actually zoom in we don't need the mask and let's go and what is going to be the end ah cool I like this I like the whole okay I think in terms of post to pose you right now you have a lot of hard stops you you're not quite out of the woods yet I know it's a struggle and I think that will be that's going to be the focus of all of this here which you have that I like the little em moving in the arms that's all cool and then you go forward watch out rip right there it's a bit fast that one it's one of those where you are now off the ground with this and is suddenly accelerating and it's just if you would go this fast you would have to have already a bit more over this leg and holding this a bit longer with a foot roll so that this leg can actually push this way fast and right now it's you're moving fast and taking this off the ground at the same time and it just doesn't quite work and then you're stopping really really abruptly so if I draw that line here the onion's skating here right and then you just stop this could barely work if it's a slower move from here to here but now that you have this so fast you're going to have to ease in and stop or ease in overshoot and come back so watch out for that harsh stop as you go forward there's a little bit you can see how the arm stays up here and then you have a bit of a connected arm and head chest drop there at the same time watch out this is an overlap that's not super clean I will keep that arm down and that one a bit higher for separation you know something like that or that or that or that or that that's fine too as an in between since you are in the Polish aspect I would take that either bring the arm a bit higher a bit lower so you don't have a tangent with the forearm in the the pants there and then you go down and that's pretty okay here in real time though there's a slight feeling of this hits pretty much the top and this hits or grabs at the same time wh right there it's still a bit post to pose I like that you have a little bit of Aman settle there and then as you go up this is better because now you're going up bring this in and then this comes down that's probably your most successful moment through there but then what happens is that you go and then everything just stops look at your your route goes up and it's like I'm I'm framing through hold on look at that there's really not much going you can scrub and then you can start seeing some pixels moving but as a whole it really feels like we're going into this pose and stop so that's a really strong post to pose moment there this watch out it's like the head and all this starts to move at the same time again stronger offsets I think in your case you just have to really really push for super strong offsets even though it would look silly and exaggerated I think you just got to get your brain into that mode of offset offset offset this moment works better because you have your head turn that stops while this overlaps and continues into this so that's better this is also really locked this feels like an action and then it starts moving I think you can have a little bit of a ambient move or like a moving ho where maybe these goes up these go up and maybe like a slight lean over and then again watch out you have the head turn and then we freeze look at this this section here dead dead then we have arms and head moving all at the same time it's subtle I not that's super strong but again has this feeling of head and arms and body and stop and now again for a moment we're we're pretty dead it's not too bad this one again is really strong that move out and then hold look at this I can again scrub through this section there's not much going on you would have a bit of a moving hold through there keep going a little bit a little bit fingers come up a little bit little bit a little bit and then you can relax this gets in that stiff aspect of it even though this moves back more this arm it has that feeling of arms upper body and head here moving as one it just has the feel of it I know the head is not super locked but what it does have it's two World space or ik or header line whatever that control is called well you can see that orientation rotation it doesn't really change it kind of stays locked you might argue maybe rotates down a bit but that doesn't quite feel natural as as like changing maybe like as he looks right now you're doing fairly one axis you would have a little bit of a lean over with a little bit of a y change in the head and again we're locking here look at this so locked and then everything moves over together there's no offset really the only thing that kind of stays is the leg but then again we're going Sho pose hold hold hold over this is a bit of a boang wiggle that's good but then as we get into this everything kind of moves up a little bit more here there's a little bit of an offset there but in real time it just feels like again POs to pose hitting this even though you hit arms and then the body continues to go down it's ever so slightly posst feeling when I I know the route continues but what adds to that is that moment of that hit and then recovery little overshoot there and then lock and then again we're super locked instead of going down up or Bounce Down up whatever you want to do how much you want to exaggerate and then again we're going out where everything moves up where at this point you could rotate just ahead three frames then maybe bring up the shoulders and then one of the arms goes down and then you get into a one point that pose and so on that's good though full extension and then coming together that's nice but that's my The General um feedback is that it's it's more so than usual like it just has those sudden stops and locks that's a new thing and you really need to really just get into that head space of just push push your offsets even if it's not something you want to submit just as an exercise you can just send me one I I won't count it as a submission and just really just exaggerate how much one arm is moving compared to the other like or the whole thing only the head is moving and then the chest and then arms and then body and so on you really have to like push yourself into just one exercise piece where it's like super exaggerated one two 3 4 and so on where you really really offset like you go through looks maybe or something like this right and it's completely offset and then you can go into one whatever it is like one and two and start overlapping right it's like right now it just you have every now and then an offset but then they bam stop and then there's nothing for moment and then it continues pose to pose and I would I would practice something where it's first you have one body part and then you have another body part and then you have another body part and so on and then you start practicing where it's more like this one with a slight overlap with two a slight overlap into three and so on just just kind of I think you just need some muscle memory to to get into that habit all right thanks all right there's an email you can sign up you can start whenever you want you can submit whenever you want you get 16 submissions either way like And subscribe would be awesome all right thank [Music] you
