Animation blog 4

I decided to add a wall because I am going to make a start on the running animation. The postion the picture shows is the character moving up on a stool. If a person were to go into this pose in real life, they wouldn’t be able to support themselves and they would fall over, so later I’m going to add a stool for support.

 

After I added in a stool to show the character moving forward to get up onto the wall, also by adding the stool the character pose makes more sense, because without using it for support the character wouldn’t be able to hold the pose and would fall down.

The next picture shows the character getting onto the ledge. I know the pose isn’t perfect as they would be able to stay on the chair, but it is a starting point for the character running across the wall.

What I learned

I did struggle with making more poses when adding the character because it is hard to stop the character going through the model as there is no “collision” to stop it. Also when adding the model the character ended up going through it because of the existing animation you made before it, without really thinking about it. In future I plan to make my prop model before I animate.
