Please Critique my animation

Hi

This is my first animation I have tried doing it is a walk cycle.

Thank you for your Critique of it

Byron :cool:

Nice job. the first thing is your not moving the hips and upper body correctly. I dread walk cycles. I spent years on them. So…Keep googling and learn how the upper body turns slightly with the rest. The left leg out and the right hip in? Something like that. Anyway, When Pixar does it they place markers on a human and follow it. Making a good ani of a human is tough. If you can get it right, well you wont, but some come close…I guess james cameren came the closest…But good…work on it. Matt

– Try getting the hips to move forward at a more constant rate… if you are walking down the street you have approximately a constant velocity.
– arms look robotic… loosen them up with overlapping action, get some wrist movement in there
– chest looks stiff, get some slight chest movement
– get some head movement
– hand pose looks pretty avergae
– get some twist in the spine
