Training Workshop

Student Animation Snippet Exercise

The
principles of animation have been laid down by Disney Animators Frank
Thomas and Ollie Johnston in the “Illusion of life ” in 1981.

Some more concepts have been added over the years and one of the most
important addition, or clarification, is the concept of “weight shift”.

Here is a quick animation snippet by student Rajson Shakya.


Overlapping
Action is another of the cornerstones of animation. By overlapping the
actions of a characters’ body, hair, tail, clothing or for this
exercise, the arm; your animation will feel more fluid and life-like!

Here is a quick animation snippet by student Niroj Karmacharya.

To learn like Rajson and Niroj, apply to Puppeteer Lounge!

LIONEX “The Transformer”



LIONEX “The Transformer” from Suchan Bajracharya on Vimeo.

So here is a glimpse of what me and Rajesh Bhoye is upto. Rajesh Bhoye is a student and a good friend of mine. This is a turntable of a Transforming Quadruped Mech called LIONEX which is initially conceptualized by Rajesh. The character does multiple transformation! I am responsible for the modeling and technical stuffs or consulting. Currently Rajesh is looking into the character setup and animation. I am looking forward for the finished version of this project where Rajesh is planning on implementing some cool moves.

Hope you like it! All the best to Rajesh 🙂
