Telling tales - animating

noticed the character was a different map from Ciaras, just needed the right file.

Mat suggested that to make it clearer have something to knock over, for example coconut  or bottle, but as Ciara has already rendered out 20 odd seconds of her animation, it's d unfair to get her to change each scene.

For the next scene, we have the girl getting fed up with the brothers' poor attepts at throwing the ball and failing to get it though the hoop, that she pushes him out the way.

We filmed some reference videos, to help me with this interaction.

My character however, cannot move hist legs so I will have to just have her push his upper body back, and see how that looks without him actually stepping back and reacting like Ciara does in the vid. In the playblast here, I decided there needed to be more exageration, to make it clear what's happening.

I exaggerated his reaction, by making him look down at her hand and bringing his chest back to empasize he is being pushed, I then made him fold his arms to make him look unhappy about the sitiation. I showed this to Ciara and she was happy with it, she did think that the brother was wrapping his arms around the girl, but I showed her a playbast without the skeletons and she said it made more sence to her that he was folding his arms
