INSTRUCTIONS


(Final) - Action Animation

Our task is to create a dynamic and visually engaging 5 to 10 second physical action sequence animation using the provided character rig. This time our task will be more complicated than before. We need to create a complete set of martial arts actions.

I found the reference I wanted to make in the reference link given by the teacher, and I drew the shot storyboard

I found the video I wanted to refer to on the website recommended by my teacher. I wanted to make a video about the feeling of fighting with bare hands and being able to roll in the air.

Capture key actions and create keyframes on them


 

I started making





Then I found a model of the background on Sketchfab , which looked more realistic.

I received feedback from the teacher in the last week. The teacher watched it repeatedly and pointed out the problems.

In the first scene, the protagonist twisted his head too much, which did not look natural. I was advised to lengthen the time of making facial expressions before tilting my head.

The teacher thought there was something wrong with my camera movement. I felt weird when I zoomed out and then quickly cut to a close-up.

I made a transition between the two scenes to make it look more natural.

Reflection

But timing is my problem. I often can't grasp it well. Teacher Kamal will raise this big problem for me and tell me the solution. I am very happy to study under Teacher Kamal. I have learned a lot of knowledge. When I encounter problems, the teacher is happy to help me solve them. This makes me feel a little comforted when I am under great pressure in study. I hope I can solve the problem of movement maintenance and anticipation. In short, 3D animation is very interesting. I am lucky to have met Teacher Kamal. I hope I can be more familiar with this knowledge in the future.
