please ignore the character in the image

I have finally moved on to college comp from my laptop. I feel so excited to work on the big screen, even though my half day just went in uploading the textures on to the files.

Walk Cycle Basics, Maya Tutorial

Normal Walk Cycle

Am struggling with the walk cycle poses, it just doesn't seem to be right. Yes these references did help though.
Hope Meera walks straight in the film :P

past

This is nothing important, these images will be framed and kept on a shelf.
The camera pans through these as Meera gets nostalgic and wanders in her past

And then suddenly the rigging process becomes simpler with the plugin which includes not just the biped and quadruped bone setup but all the controllers too. Creating the attributes is no pain.
This seems to be the most exciting part in the process. Am eagerly looking forward to just skin the characters.



A month and a half left for submission and i still haven't animating. Well the bone setup and rig is almost getting over which i ll put up soon.
Am also done with rough animatics which is too heavy to be uploaded here.
anyways i ll keep you posted :D

textured location

so yes this will be the location where the film will be shot.. hehe! These aren't the real colors though. twill change with the lighting.
