Muzzle animation

so this is my muzzle animation, i did a horse, and uses a line from the simpsons, its homer saying, my friend.. i haven't learned a thing.

Character Lineup

So ive been trying to work with my characters to come up with a good solid story, but nothing was coming to me, until i decided to change the comic relief and villain, it just made sense. And now ive at least got a story to work with, im going to have the hero, and villain fighting over the love of the loved one, and the comic relief is going to be her father i was thinking? even though he looks like the hilbilly type and she looks fancy, but i might try that, or maybe hes just the bartender or some strange guy thats hanging around the bar, that intervenes with the 2 of them telling them what to do, and maybe he ends up with the loved one.. ya havent figured much out but ill have something before i go into storyboards.

Human Lip Sync

This is my human lip sync, i started this wednesday, and finished it thursday, to hand in, i would have done a better job in the actual lip sync but i had to catch my train, and my characters mouth is pretty small, ill probably touch it up, and clean this up a bit to use as a possible demo reel piece.

cowboy

so i havent started animating my chaacter lip synch yet ut i have got a somewhat final character design done.

bird character

rotation and poses for character design assignment im not posting my muzzle character rotation and poses cause i kinda hate them, but heres my bird stuff...

Beak and Muzzle Characters

the characters im thinking of using for my beak and muzzle character assignment, 2 elderly characters that are best of friends, the dog is grumpy about everything and uses a cane with a tennis ball at the bottom for grip, and the other is very optimistic bird with a branch for a cane, the bird brings up great times from the past, and the dog just complains about how horrible those days were...

Caricatures

So ive started putting together my caricatures which i need to have done for this coming tuesday, and this is what ive got thus far.

Run Walk Animation

This is what i handed in today, its a lot less then what i originally intended to get done, and im not to happy with the animation either, im hoping to get better quickly so i can actually get something decent in my demo reel.

Dad Run Cycle

This is my dad run cycle, im not to happy with it but it will do, im not done all my extra animation, and ive got to get workin on it if i want to get it all done before thursday... i still want to animate the kid reacting to the dad tapping his shoes and saying his name, then having the kid turn around saying 'what', have the dad point at a wall, show a layout of crayon marks all over a wall, then the kid running away, add voices for the dad and son, maybe some sound efx, and maybe even have the dad catch the son and, have the kid walk back to the wall upset to go clean it up, if i dont get all that done for the actuall assignment, ill probably do it during winter break for possible demo real matterial..

Kid Walk Cycle

So here is my cleaned up walk cycle, it generally turned out alright, i went in and fixed up a couple of areas, let me know what you think! stay tuned for the whole thing on thursday!
