WTF?!? Part Two: Gays That Hate Being Gay, but Love Dating Fag-Hags. Or Their BF's. On the Next Tyra...

Oh dear. The really fun part comes at 07:15 when Tyra tries to understand all this nonsense. She does a pretty good job until her neurons all fire at once and make her head explode.

P.S. Love the audience hottie with the red tie. Call me.

WTF?!?

I want both of these people destroyed. Immediately.

BEHOLD!



This is the result of loading up a shotgun full of keyframes and shooting it at a timeline. And then just converting all the tangents to "shameful."

I was trying to get some blocking done on another dialogue shot and was getting frustrated with the process. I feel like I have to suss out my process every time I start work on something. It's my purgatory I suppose. My animation soul, it appears, must first be purified before being accepted by whatever animation god (Thor (oh some of you will find that funnier than others)) I've pissed off this week. I have to be more disciplined and start animating every single day.

Anyhoozle. Take a look at this and feel free to critique. Any words are helpful, even if you are not an animator. Even though I've marked it a WIP, I probably won't revisit it. I was just playing around and need to finish up the other dialogue piece (or two) and the other stuff, too, whatever they turn out to be.

P.S. I'm well aware of the hiccup at frame 77 (or so).

New Character Rig from Jason Baskin


Here's a new rig, Blake, from Jason Baskin, creator of the Bloke, Blik and Blok rigs. The rig comes with a variety of physical appearance options built in and very dynamic facial controls, including a nifty control called "autoLid" that keeps the eyelids traveling with the eyes. Blake is served up with a how-to YouTube video. Go check 'em out.
