Rope Swing Re-block

Posted by Avner Engel in Animation, Animation Mentor

This week I decided to re-block the entire start of my shot because it felt too smooth and floaty. The common feedback I got on the site was that it didn’t feel like the character was running away from someone or from something, a note I tend to agree with.

In order to keep the actions in the context of the short story I established in the previous shots, it was important for me to get that frantic feel out of the timing and spacing. Below is the re-block with a little bit more snap to it.
