This week’s assignment is all about Tailor. w00t! My first character! We have to animted him jumping at least three times with Squash and Stretch and Overlapping Action with the tail.
So, here’s my obstacle course first attempt. If you read this blog, please leave a comment. Let me know what you think. I don’t care if you don’t know anything about animation - comment on it!
The hardest part about it was bouncing on multiple levels. You can’t just follow the formula of: 5 frames up, 5 frames down, next bounce is 4 frames up, 4 frames down, etc.. It’s all mixed up when you have a long fall and a short reach.
I definitely gave myself a challenge by trying to use the hinged ramp in the middle to trick the ball’s trajectory. It’s all good though. I’m learning!
