Moom Character Rig

Hi Everyone,

This is Moom, a really cool character rig developed by a chap called Ramtin Ahmadi. Moom is free and can be downloaded from highend3d.
Among other rigs Moom is being used in the second series of the Jason Ryan Animation webinars that are held once a month for a two hour live web meeting demonstrating drawn and CG Animating in flipbook and Maya. I will be following along with the normal tutorials and trying my hand at the hard stuff taught in the webinar master classes.
So keep checking back to see what I have been up to.

see you soon

Walk Cycle - 2nd Attempt

Hello,

Since loosing all the data off my Digicel USB drive I have been trying to find some time to do the exerise again.

Here it is, this time however I have drawn the key frames while watching the tutorial, then I watched the tutorial again.

Finally I have drawn the in-betweens without refering back to the tutorial, pressing F3 and F4 to flip backwards and forwards to try and see the flow of motion.

It was quite hard to begin with to determine where I have come from and where I am going to so the animatin flows. I am determined to get good at this so I will keep at it.

Need to sort out the head animation as I would like it to gently move from side to side, I have just finished and wanted to update my blog. I will create a Maya version later in the week.

Let me know what you think so far.
