Walk Cycles

this week we've been doing drawn and cgi walk cycles.
for the drawn walk cycles i have been making progress with the character twinkle. (i will put the quick time files on deviant when i have finished them.) the cgi walk cycles are done using maya. there aren't enough machines for us all, so as yet i've been watching a fellow classmate animate the figure we've been given to play with. the brief wants us to produce a cgi walk cycle each, so i mentioned the lack of machines problems to the tutors. i was told that not all the machines will run maya, looks like i may have to spend dinner times attempting my walk cycles(if there are any free machines).

good news though, i recently bought the animators survival kit, muybridge's animals in motion and the human figure in motion, and no logo. yay for books ^U^

today we had a talk on toon boom. if i can get a new laptop i'll get a student toon boom licence.
