There are a couple of bits of my current reel that I want to replace so I’m working on some new stuff. This is me trying to get more acting into my animation. I’m going for a kind of awkward geek run.
I wanted to show you the back because I really like the secondary motion on the backpack. Which there was a lot of that on this particular character so it made it a lot of fun to do. Which all of that brings a lot of life to this little guy. Thanks to Keil Figgins for providing free rigs for us animators to use.
Nice, I reckon all it’s missing is a little bit more weight, maybe just exaggerate his vertical motion a little.

Thanks Brendan,
Thats exactly what another friend of mine suggested. As soon as I did that it gave a lot more life to the animation. I’ll post a Quicktime of that later so people can see what that small change can do.
