Hey Av!
Great job man….
In your angry walk, his right arm is bent on x5 and then it straightens till x9 and then it again bends on the next frame. I think the lower arm need to follow through and not bend on that frame. another way to get a bent arm at the extreme back is to keep it bent all along the sway. I just got up and tried walking like that. Or else you can straighter the back extreme to get natural follow through.
just my 2 cents….i might be completely wrong
ur new work is awsome..Y dont u try it in 3D now..
Looking Gud the new skip one…The best thing I like abt u is u dont clone jason stuff..U keep doing something new wid that…
Thanks

Heya Av! It’s been a while man. Life is crazy busy for me but I have been watching your stuff! I’ve loved watching your 2d tests. I love to see you playing around with that medium. I’m getting a little antsy to try it out but I’ve been tied to my film. Anyway, just wanted to say good work with it man — keep it up!
Wiked cool on the skipping test… I love the overlap! His tutorials must be really helping.
The angrey walk looks good, too… I like the overlap on the arms… It’s a stylized cartoony walk, right? It works as a stylized walk… but for a more natural realistic angree walk… it’s very exaggerated… but I know that’s what your going for… so that’s fine.
The old man walk looks good… could do with some more weight in there, though. Maybe have him lean on his cane more… to exaggerate the fact he needs it… maybe add in a little shake of the cane and/or woggle as he’s walking… you know like the did in ‘Kung Fu Panda’… have you seen the movie yet? It’s an awesome movie! I highley recommend seeing that movie if you havn’t already.
Good job, man.
