ANIMATION HANDY GUIDE: Walk Cycles

pages 38/39

This Book, 'ANIMATION HANDY GUIDE' shows different versions of the walk cycle. Suggested in this book is trying to limit the amount of frames to create the illusion of movement.

THE HUMAN FIGURE IN MOTION

This book provides real photo graphic evidence of the way the body moves, by Eadweard Muybridge. These pictures help me get a real 'feel' for the body proportions and the way it moves. This will help both in walk cycles and in character designs.  

By the documentary of these movements, I can edit my; contact pose, down pose, passing pose and up poses. To feature more realistic bodily movements. 

Walk Cycle- Key frame

What I learnt today that walk cycles is a key frame animation. And that these, are the key frame poses of a walk. (notes from my notebook.)
