Horse Trot Animation Layered

Here is the UPDATED horse animation. i exaggerated the head animation instead of a head toss. i just need to light the scene & render it. will do it once i get linda's approval on the animation.

This bug happens sometimes if you animate with Ribgcage,spine and root, and then rotate root over 180 degree(Y axis). the spine gets flipped. Just beaware of this.

I changed the reveal and tried to make a more interesting camera angle.

The lioness rig is in the class folder. W:\ANM_499_26_Bel Check it out! Make sure you reference the file into your scene.

Still in the blocking stage for the creature. I will add another character called Squirrely. Story is Squirrely is being hunted by the creature Ruben Cruz

Students will be graded on assignment 1 : cycle animation moving forwards along a ground plane with a contact shadow - FINAL ANIMATION assignment 2: animating a scene using the horse, deer, human and/or one of our creatures - BLOCKING Assignments can be handed into class drop off folder, or preferably on the blog under the existing posts 'ANIMATING A SCENE work in progress' and 'FINAL HORSE ANIMATIONS.' Make sure to add your name under the movie file, and what stage you are at in your animation for assignment 2.

Idea for the Horse herd story: Begining, Close up on person who is sad or just staring. Middle, Persons expression changes to delight End, We see them looking at the horses out the train or car window

IF YOU HAVE NOT ALREADY DONE SO, PLEASE PUT YOUR HORSE MAYA FILES INTO THE DROP OFF FOLDER BY THE END OF THE DAY TODAY FOR THE HORSE HERD ANIMATION. ANY FILES THAT ARE NOT TURNED IN WILL BE MARKED AS LATE !!!
