Animation Masterclass at VIEW Turin 24 Oct
Escape Studios are running an animation masterclass at VIEW, the 20th International VFX & Computer Graphics Conference that takes place every year in the beautiful Italian town of Torino (Turin).VIEW is a week long event showcasing the best of animation, games and visual effects.
Speakers this year include Paramount Head Mireille Soria, and music legend Hans Zimmer.
We'll be there running a one-day workshop in Maya on Wednesday 24th October, demonstrating some sophisticated but very simple animation techniques.
The class is aimed at complete beginners and requires no prior experience with Maya.
What is this animation class all about?
Character Walks with "Monty" |
Character walks are one of the most important parts of the animator's toolkit, and I will be showing students how to take a basic walk cycle and, with just a few tweaks, completely change the character's mood and personality.
Starting with a basic walk cycle, we can make a character happy, sad, angry or scared with just a few clicks. It's a great technique that breaks down apparently complex outcomes into simple, basic steps that any animator can master.
To do the exercise, we'll be using the marvellous Monty rig by Raveen Rajadorai. You can download the rig here for free from HighEnd3D.com. Monty has no arms, which makes the process of making the walk cycle, and adapting it, much simpler.
You might think that you can't get that much character and personality out of a simple rig like Monty - but you can. During the demonstration I'll show you how to make Monty happy, sad, angry, masculine, feminine - and even turn him into a goose-stepping soldier. All with just a few clicks.
So, to get the most out of the webinar, animate a basic walk cycle with Monty, and I'll explain how to make simple changes that will give him character and personality.

VIEW is the large international festival for animation, VFX, and computer graphics. It takes place in October every year, and the festival gets great speakers - especially from the big US studios.
