singin' a song~

Well okay, he's just walking is all, but I was thinking about syncing it to music.

Here's something I've been working in terms of portfolio work, sorry it's been so long since I've posted but I'm really working on putting out presentable stuff like animation tests and whatnot.

Anyways, he's the result of 2 weeks of work, this walk cycle took waaaaay longer than it should've but I wanted it to look presentable for my demo reel that is still in the process of getting done. Richard Williams said that walk cycles are some of the most hardest things to animate, and that's not a lie. But I think I bit off more than I could chew because with this one, animating the clothes are what took it out of me and what I spent the most time on XD

I wanted to animate Marx for a long time and doing a common walk cycle seemed a cool place to start. So this is a normal exaggerated walk cycle for animation, but it almost looks like this is how Marx would walk normally, such a carefree kid XD

So enough rambling, the specs. Animated in flash with some bits reused if you couldn't tell. Frame rate is 24 all animated on 1s.

Marx and animation (c) to me

it's perfect :)
One question, do you draw it straight into flash? Or do you draw all the frames on paper and go over it?

All on flash, I'm gonna make an in depth tutorial on how to make clean lineart in flash, many people seem pretty enamored with how smooth it looks XD

And thanks again :3

np~
I use the old MX 2002 to draw the lineart, because the newer ones have a really crappy paintbrush tool and it makes the lines all skippy @_@

Yeah it does have that issue, Adobe's trying to push their brushes more so in Photoshop.
