Grids Dynamics: Part 2

Animation Practice - Using Moom

Action: 'Boiling Up'

This is not finished yet but his expression has improved dramatically. With help from Alan we shifted his weight on each frame, moved more body parts and added facial expression.

However, I need to create in between frames to make the movement less mechanical. Moom does have a very large head, so this is something I need to consider next time. I'll make sure that his hand doesn't go through his head.

Animation - Moom Boiling Up

Here is my progress. I struggled with the facial movement but I think the movement is almost there.

Part 4: Option 1 (Static Match) - Non-Compositing (Single Pass) Integration of Objects

I found this tutorial a bit difficult in terms of placing objects accurately and getting the lighting for the scene as realistic as possible. I'm not sure I've quite got it yet?
