Dynamic Motion: Character Locomotion Studies

Project Overview

A 3D animation showcase demonstrating a character’s varied movements: walking, limping, and running. This project highlights my skills in character rigging, animation principles, and attention to detail in creating lifelike digital characters.

Key Achievements

  • Created three distinct, realistic locomotion animations for a single character
  • Demonstrated proficiency in character rigging and animation techniques
  • Showcased ability to convey personality and physical conditions through animation

Tools Used

  • Autodesk Maya
  • Adobe After Effects

Process Highlights

  1. Character modeling and rigging
  2. Animation of walking, limping, and running cycles
  3. Fine-tuning for realism and character consistency
  4. Rendering and post-processing

Skills Demonstrated

  • 3D character animation
  • Rigging
  • Motion analysis and replication
  • Attention to detail in biomechanics

Challenges Overcome

  • Achieved natural-looking weight shifts, especially in the limping animation
  • Maintained character consistency across different motion styles
