Walk Cycle - 1st Attempt



The original task on the brief was to create a generic walk cycle but this is tangent from that.

I was drawing loosely at first, trying to get a feel for the key movements in a walk. I then decided to go ahead and in-between so here is the result of my first walk cycle! Ron said I had incorporated a sense of character (which was what we were told NOT to do) though I was not consciously aware of doing this while I was animating.

During the brief Ron also explained and acted out the 'Timber' and 'Catching' effect of each step a person takes. When I tried applying this method to my walk, it became apparent that this was what was adding to much character.
