Walk Cycle

Hey there!

Well walk cycle is somewhat done! Tried walk to stop but screwed it up Royally so starting it again! :( oh well you win some you lose some!!! We now move on to jump assignment! JUMP!!! well i have some ideas I wanna try and implement in this assignment, wanted to do a slight bit of storytelling!!! wanted to show that the guy is trying to run from someone! Gets cornered, and jumps a building to get away! Maybe as a side project I may add the second character! For now i'll concentrate on the main assignment! Hoping to do a good job!

Well nothing else! Only I am starting to go healthier! Now I not only play games on PC I try to play real games :D and boy! Does my body need the exercise!!! its in pathetic condition... most of the people from studio and students of Takshaa get together and play football in a nearby field! It was a good opportunity to observe my next assignment ^_^ i.e if I am doing Football!!! anyway it was fun... and it was even more fun when I was in the middle of the action! And even though I screwed up the whole game! I Did have a lot of fun!!!

ok! ok! No more babbling! I'll stop!


Well before I sign off here's the playblast of the walk cycle! Its final (for now)

HELLO second SEM

Hey there,

Exactly a month since my last post! Well what do I say? I am getting lazy :( had almost a month of relaxation! And thanks to my crappy comp no animation! (though I really wanted to do some) oh I know I am giving silly reasons and I can find a way to animate no matter what happens but well it was holidays!!! Ok now I am in Second Semester!!! HURRAY!!! its already a week into my second semester. The time table is quite light! Only 3 classes venu sir taking art. Chippy sir taking communication skills (and thank god it's not in my third Sem which is already overburdened) and our main module Animation (AB101) which is taken by Dhanumjay who has already made a awesome impression on me in relation to dedication to teaching! Well looking forward to learn a lot from this sem!


That reminds me the main reason of starting this blog! My works!!! this weeks assignment was walk cycle of hogan! Which is what I have done! Here's a playblast of it!

Well apart from this I tried out a shot on my own during the week 0 when there was no assignment. Unfortunately I never was able to finish it! Just did some blocking and cleaned up only the arms legs and COG! Will work on it whenever I get time




Well Thats it nothing new to tell!

ohhhhhhhh! my acking back!

Hey there!

And so My Ist semester ends! YAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! 4 semesters down BABY! Just 2 more to go… oh boy did I learn! And how do I celebrate the end of the semester! Why by running in a 5Km marathon Of course! The aftermath of that I can still feel in my poor *ouch* old bones. I still can’t believe that I actually took part in a marathon. Well it was nice I suppose i.e. if you forget the fact that it was about 10 AM with the good old sun shining BRIGHT on us. I did find something out. I CANT RUN for more than 200 meters (Booo! Hooooooooooo!)

Ok ok back on track, Animation! Animation the reason I actually created this blog. Well the final submission went well last Thursday, considering the fact that my animation still needed polishing. Jayash (our faculty) told me to tone down the exaggerated unbalancing act (he! he!) and a few timing issues… oh and ya I myself admit to all the notorious knee pops in the scene (some of them like the time when he puts the foot down hard I wanted on purpose). He seemed pretty satisfied with my work. Or that’s the impression I got! Well as for how much I may get! Well that I’ll find out on 2nd June.

For now its rest, TV, games, tutorials and Taking care of my poor battered body.

Oh before I forget heres the much awaited playblast ^_^



P.S. made a change in blog's looks, as there was a lot of unused space in the old template!

Well that’s it for now

Sumo HO!

Hey there,

Sorry didnt post anything for a while! Well its been a busy couple of weeks. First of all finished submitting the pre-final!

Here they are:

Pendulam:




Walk(side):



Walk(front):



WeightShift:



well now that, "That's" over we can go over to the next weeks stuff... the next week was spent looking for a concept, and the concept I came up with was BOMBED royally! But not to worry the class was able to come up with a new and better concept. Started blocking imminently and finished it today. So heres a playblast of it. Gonna go ahead and open it up. It need a bit more props. A change in camera angle (and a slight panning animation) will add as soon as i finish with animation...



Oh and we also had a play on monday, which was written and directed by me. I also played a role in the play. Will put it up as soon as i figure how to get it lower then 100MB and be able to load it in Youtube... the play is untitled but was unfortunatly called “vedanth's Nightmare” which started as a joke...

well thats it for now!
