Tools of the Trade 1: Film Language, Part 1: Importance of camera movement
The importance of camera movement in filmmaking : This episode from 'The Discarded Image' shows us the influence that Hitchcock had on a new young director in the 1970s named Steven Spielberg.
Very nice work Donjin!
ReplyDeleteBring the camera in a little closer so that the horse is larger in frame.
You want your animation to be visible on your reel.
If necessary, track the motion a bit with the camera, and put a simple object in the background as reference for the movement.
Have the horse and shadow move completely offscreen at the end of the scene instead of freezing in frame.
The head toss is too snappy. Add 1 or 2 frames to the head toss to soften the motion and a settling motion. Let the curve overshoot a bit after the head toss. The head toss causes the chest to move. Copy the curves to the chest, scale it out so the motion takes longer (the chest is heavier than the head) and offset the motion by a couple of frames. Think action reaction.
