Week 01
This is our first week back at Animation Mentor and we hitting the ground running. This week we had to create a little "show reel" to show the work that we had completed during Class 01 (you can see mine here) as well as create two poses using Stella, our new character rig for this class.
Our poses had to show movement.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Week 02
This week we had to do a full body character walk cycle. We had to either do a personality walk or another vanilla walk. I decided to go with a personality walk (just I enjoy making things difficult for myself)
The personality walk I decided to go with a woman walking in high heels. So I decided to add heels to the Stella character rig we had to use for this assignment.
Then I went on the hunt to find reference of a woman that is walking in heels. Which was kinda easy with the help of good all YouTube. (Link of video on YouTube)

Week 03
This week we had to continue to work on our walk cycle and take it into spline all the way to the finish line. We were also given a new pose assignment where we had to show bodies in motion/action.
Submitted pose.
Submitted pose.
This is just something I did extra cause I got into the posing zone!

Week 04
This was a interesting week. We started planning our quadraped walk cycle using the Sloan character rig and a new rig is always exciting!
We also had to create interesting poses using Sloan.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Week 05
This week we had to block out our Sloan walk as well as create more poses with him.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Week 06
This was kind of a slow week. We had to carry on with our walk cycle animation and create more interesting poses using Sloan.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Week 07
This week we had to finish up our quadruped walk with Sloan and then start our planning for the Pantomine animation.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Week 08
This is the final assignment for Class 02 with Animation mentor. We had to plan and the do the blocking for our physicality animation. For this animation I decided to use the Steward rig from Animation and have him try and reach a nut in a tree.
I used some parkour and Assassin's Creed for my reference. The jumping up is from some parkour reference and the tuck and roll is from a guy doing parkour dressed in a Assassin's Creed outfit.
