Walk cycle

So here it goes. This guy is kicking my trash. I can't seem to figure out the walker actions. Let me know of any suggestions.

Work in Progress Update

Having a hard time timing out the head. Let me know what you think.

Awesome Book

This book is really awesome. It is a bunch of animators talking about the way they go about creating animation. I hope you enjoy it.

So here is the video of my walk cycle so far. I finally got it to upload to youtube.

Character

So I thought that I would create this old guy in Illustrator. So here is what I have so far. I have created different layers to allow some movement but we will see how good that will look i guess. Still think that I am going to do this one hand drawn though.

Nostalgia. I guess.

Here is my first attempt at a walk cycle about 3.5 years ago when I was apart of the animation club here on campus. I hope that I have gotten a little better since then. I guess we will see in time.

Character Design

So here is a Character design for the walk cycle. Let me know what you think.

Flour sack WIP

So here is what I have been able to get done so far. Still working out the timing with certain things but I think that it is coming along. Let me know what you think so far. I hope the video works. If not I will put it on youtube and then embed it.

Flour Sack

So here is my rough thumbnails. So one sack is out in the middle propped up by a box and the other sack enters stage left. The flour sack comes into scene and walks up to the other sack and checks it out. It then takes the sack and dips it as if to be dancing.  It then gets to enthusiastic with a twirl and ends up twirling the sack off camera. A big plume of dust enters from stage right. The flour sack goes from a "oh no" gasp to sad and depressed state and then walks off stage.
