Wednesday 01 October: Past 3D Film Production student Morten Jacobsen shares an animation method.
Those who have tried their skills at character animation in a commerical studio know that one of the most important things to do - apart from animating "life" into their character - is to make sure that their timeline is kept as tidy as possible!
So, when the assistant director (or studio manager) hands back your shot correction list...you better hope, to the highest-of-heavens, that you have been a good clever worker and efficient even to set only the most definate of storytelling keyframes in your BLOCK or ROUGH.
After reviewing Keith Lango's Pose to Pose Animation webpage, one our past 3D Film Production students, Morten Jacobsen, added "better have the timing correct now, or else you are in deep ***t".

Remember, keep that timeline tidy!
