Advanced Animation of 3D Characters

You will start by the main thing: define the idea of the animation that you are going to make. Once you have chosen your project, you will search for video references, which will help you understand the physics of your animation movement.

Next, you will define your layout, place the camera, build your stage and place your character on it. You will make your first stepped blocking, where you will mark the golden poses defining each action, as well as the timing and spacing of the planes.

Then, you will pass your animation to spline, defining much better timing, spacing, arcs, inertias, silhouettes and balances.

One of the last steps is refining, for which it is advisable that you count on the feedback of other people, since they will help you to work in depth the details that may have been less defined.

To finish, you will make the polishing phase, in which you will add those little details that are not visible to the naked eye, but they are essential to turn a good animation into a brilliant one.

The icing on the cake will come with the render, to which you will add some small sound effects that will contribute to bring realism to your animation.
