Body poses

Posted by Avner Engel in Animation, Sketchbook

Hey there, sorry it has been a while since my last posting. It seems like the days are slipping by without realizing how the time flies by.

At the moment I am involved in a couple of projects at school, one of them is a co-production with a very talented bloke named Paul Harris. In a nut shell, we are working on a short film about a guy who is obsessed with his paper. My role is to model the environment  as well as story-boarding and character animation.

I have attached an image of the body poses I am currently working on. The idea is to explore the emotional state of the character in order to convey his state of mind. For the purpose of the test I used the fabulous Package Man rig. I recommend it to anyone who is into character animation. Its really easy to work with and you get heaps of control on the character.

As always any feedback or criticism is always welcome.
