I took a couple of weeks off last Christmas/New Year's and decided to work on a few new animations.

I had been looking at a bunch of videos for references and couldn't pick one to do, so I decided to mash a couple together. Despite the complexity of the movements, this animation proved to be incredibly straightforward and fun to do. Contrary to my usual nature of animating pose-to-pose, I placed a handful of golden key poses before completely switching over to a straight ahead style. The only downside to this was that it took a little longer to animate than my usual time.

Amazing, there's definitely a feel of the model throwing weight around and still being able to balance.

It's all about the bouncing ball. Before anything else, I always make sure the trajectory on the hip. The rest just fell into place. (although it also helps that I took a few hours to study and understand my references before modifying them)

How long does it usually take for you to animate?

That depends on many factors. For this type of animation, for example, it shouldn't take me longer than 2 and a half work days (at most, and even then that's a pretty generous estimate). This time around I took about 4-5 days. I was on vacation so naturally I was lazing about more than working seriously on this. I really wanted to enjoy it, you know? ;)
