The... Fall

Just testing how it worked with her passing him... and I'm happy so far :]
Still being worked on so thats why there's a long gap of nothing happening :D


Still checking for things that need changing... and I need to somehow stop the motion tweening on the little stones for when he falls.... but it's not going how it should so still working on that... aswel...


Still need to have him looking at her so that he doesn't notice the bin ahead of him... and obviously his face, hat and footwear still needs to be completed. Shouldn't be too much :]....VID IS CRAP AGAIN!! D:<


Finally finished.... will still try and smoothen out some parts if I can.


All the animation parts together.. this is how it;s supposed to look when it has the clicking button there..


I wasn't too happy with that ending so I added this.... I think it flows back into the walk cycle better... still not to pleased but I think its better than the 1st ending..

Miss Lady Girl :]

Here are some pics of some girls from Johnny Bravo... I like the simplisity of it.
I only need side views because my character will only walk by for a short time.





Here is a quick drawing of the girl character that I will use.

Changed the colour of the shorts, and made them slightly shorter because I found that the older one looked more like a skirt than shorts.


A vid from Johnny Bravo.
Mainly for the girls because they are medium shots of them walking across the screen.
The first girl is particularly good becuase the camera is tracking her as she walks wich is what I want to do in a part of my animation. Also the rest of the girls walk past the screen as the cam is focused on Johnny, also similar to what I will do in mine.


A short close up of her walking along... It will only last as short as that if not slightly shorter as this is just so that there wouldn't be any glitches when the guy character was clicked on... such as the order of the back ground, his position, legs, steps etc.
This way the camera would jump to her no matter what position the guy was in and that wouln't cause a problem.
I know the hair stands out ALOT.. especially against such a smooth background and even her movement.


Although not human, I think it captures and exagerates the poses and form of a 'sexy' walk.... :\... although a bit stiff hehe


A vid I found on Youtube of a girl walking through town barefooted :\..... weird yes.... but also very usefull to me for this project. :]


A key fram test of the girl walking along to get a basic idea and see if it's going OK! ^^
Oh and her arm is bent because she will have a bag over he shoulder and holding on to the strap.
And her feet are like that because she's wearing high heels.
THE VID DOESN'T SEEM TO BE PLAYING GOOD AT ALL :\
I'LL TRY AND UPLOAD IT AGAIN LATER ON BECAUSE I JUST UPLOADED IT FOR THE THIRD TIME!! D:<

Here is the same walk cycle but with all the frames in between so much smoother... not sure if her walk is too slow though, I might take out some frames to speed it up but first I want to see how this works with the male character since his walk is quite draggy.



added the body's outline over the 'skeleton'


I added the colour now to cover up her 'skeleton'.... just need to add her right arm instead of just that thick black line for an arm :]


Just need to add the face and the hair now..... taking longer than I thought.. :\
but i'm happy with the result so far :]


Finished.. now to add her walking past the guy......
I do see that the hair is moving a bit much... but i thought that I'd axaggerate that feature quite a bit because a woman's hair is her beauty and its often done in films. Also when taking photo's of models tho make the picure look more affective and eye catching.

Interactive Walk Cycle Tests

A test of the walk cycle. Just as a stick figure to make sure I get the movement how I want...


A test of the walk with the background behind.... it's ok, you're not the only one that doesn't like it..


Just added the body and clothing... I'm having some trouble with the jeans and shoes now because I made the shoes as a symbol and now i cant seem to get them moved behind the jeans...
might have to put them on another layer i guess.... :\

Moved the shoes unto a new layer so that problem is fixed... now to get the walking and background moving in sync :].... which has clearly not been done here yet :]


Still working on getting the feet to stay ON the ground instead of sliding every now and then. I also made him go forwards and back so he intereacts with the ground and background more. I left the sick figure in so that I could see the centre of his walk and to always have him im in the same position every two steps so that he doesnt walk off the screen by either walking to fast or to slow.
I will change the background to have them all on seperate layers and have each piece move at a defferent speed to create dept and distance in the background since this background is one image done in Photoshop.... maybe that will help.


Well he isn't as smooth as I wanted however the background works much better and he fits in better aswel I think :]...
I might fix his jerky movements after I get the other important things out of the way.
