My last video featured the lamp sliding over to his location, jumping upon books, and then falling down. This was a sort of storyboard.
Now I have that same lamp happing. I utilized Auto-Keyframes with little issue and decent results. I have also been reusing old keyframes so that I can make some semblance of animation loops. This really sped up some of my animation workflow. Timing and motion graphing still need to be adjusted. I am also looking to clear up my animation at the end.
The flurry of movement is going to be the lamp’s explanation to the other what he plans on doing. Once smoothed out a little better, the lamp will bob his head three times to indicate what he has in mind.
I decided not to render my animation out this time, but rather record it. I will put things to the render once I have my main animations finished, and then again at the end of this section.
Enjoy:
