Test your animation BODY MECHANICS Skills in 10 Minutes!

- Опубліковано 29 чер 2024
- A "sit down" is a frequent test I have my animation students do in order to either brush up or practice body mechanics. No acting, just plain mechanics (ok, slightly exaggerated 😄) which shouldn't take you longer than a day.. OR 10 MINUTES!
Here's the link to the BONY rig:

![3 Coco Animation Tips [On Body Mechanics]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/fFf8EsPC_ws/mqdefault.jpg)
I've been working for years, and still find this helpful, it's great to get back to basics, and practice, i will try it soon, awsome way to break it down and easy to follow along, thanks :D
Happy to help!
This video is great. Can't wait to see the next one.
Thanks!
Very helpful for every beginner. Thank you.
Happy to help!
So helpful! Thank you! 😃
My pleasure!
JD .. you're GOLD .. and your channel is as well .. awesome video today .. i learned a lot ..
Thanks!! And that’s great! Happy to help!
I like your animation and analysis. It would be great if you could do master classes like this
I had plans for Masterclasses and then I switched jobs and my schedule changed a lot. I still want to do them though.
it was clear...looking forward to the body mechanics upload
Great!
Thank you for this
Sure thing!
Great video, and killer Yuki 7 T-Shirt! 👏
Thanks! 😁
How did you do? 10mins? A day? 3 Days? There is no wrong answer! Hopefully it's a good guide and point of reference for you!

@@VasiliyBatoryk Nice!
Awesome video JD doing my first body mechanics shot for AN02. I can't wait to see another one of these videos maybe part 2 LOL
Thanks!
And yep, part 2 is coming!
@@jeandenishaas awesome!!!
@@Minurownbiznes 😁
it was helpful, thanks
Great!
Thank you sir..
Sure thing!
Hey JD! What's the difference between this approach (layered) and the poses (spacing) approach?
The difference is in the approach you prefer (or the approach that’s more appropriate for the shot). Some like to go layered, which gives you a step by step level of control body part by body part. Others like to go pose to pose which shows you quickly what the full pose looks like but you might end up using too many controllers? All depends what you’re comfortable with. I like starting with poses and then finesse with a layered approach.
Hi JD,
and thank tou for the tut!
Let me just understand the part around 17:00; where you are using spine and the ruth.
So basically you are not using the ruth only in specific cases?
You’re very welcome! Thanks for watching! And yeah I kinda depends on the shot. Sometimes when I use the root for rotations and then have chest rotations on top of that there can be some doubling up that’s tricky to clean up and edit. For bigger mechanics shots with characters jumping and flipping around I would do it all with the root (translates and rotates) and add extra with the chest. Hope that makes sense.
Thank you, its clear :)
@@ana-ot3is Ok! 😁
Thanks for the video. It took me 3 hours with following this video. I am very new. Does someone know what software are he using at 22:10 to annotate his reference?
Yep, I use Keyframe PRO, there’s a link in the description to it!
@@jeandenishaas Thanks for the reply. Tell your team a guy on UA-cam laughed a lot at the body swap animation last episode. AMAZING work.
@@troyacarpenter Hahah no team, just me!
My biggest problem is to create an acting scene where there are many unique positions. In my head I have a general idea but I don't know waht the final result quality will be and I don't know how to find rederencess. In addition, they often don't present exactly what I need. Then do I need acting by myself? Mix different references to oadjust to timing? What is the most efficient method?
I would definitely try acting things out for yourself. You can also mix reference you found with what you filmed. I try to act things out all the time even if I don’t end up using it or even if don’t film myself. It helps me with finding ideas, understanding the mechanics, etc. For me that has been efficient and maybe that will work for you too?
@@jeandenishaas Thanks for advice!
@@witoldmaj6538 Sure thing! Good luck!
What was the intro music you used?
“Amber Spill” by Trilla
How do i improve my flat animations? They look life less and i am having difficulty finding what's the problem. I hope to get some guidance,
thankyou.
Sounds like your timing is too even. When it’s lifeless you have to look at contrast in movement and timing but also make sure the character comes across as a thinking and reacting character. Don’t rush through moments.
@@jeandenishaas I'm watching your video(offset- timing and posing ) and I'm getting where I'm wrong. I'm creating all the poses at one keyframe.
@@ankurchaudhary7032 Yeah a pose to pose look will add stiffness and robotic-ness to it too.
@@jeandenishaas i get it now, then should i add variation in keys during breakdowns or after creating breakdown poses?
@@ankurchaudhary7032 That’s workflow preference. Some do it before some after. I’d try both and see how it goes for you.
I don't know body mechanics 😢
Start slowly step by step!
I am also an animator. Can you analyze my animation? I would be very grateful if you could analyze it.
I’m pretty busy, signing up for my workshop will guarantee you a time slot. But you can alway DM me and I’ll see what I can do!
