One where we draw each keyframe and the inbetweens. Learning the fundamentals of animation. And another in 3D in maya, where I use the spline editor. I've been having some issues with it, but I'm getting better.

On the projects i'm working on at the moment in my final year of my course, i'm up to my neck in rigging and painting skin weights. <BR/><BR/>But now animating time is coming back round, and I have some time free for my own animation as well and this tutorial has got me back on track with the ol' graph editor. Look forward to the next part.Neilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09484927493556331567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27563605.post-14692636726996140162007-02-23T09:14:00.000-08:002007-02-23T09:14:00.000-08:00Thank you so much Victor for spend some of your ti...Thank you so much Victor for spend some of your time writing these tutorials and share to us your knowledge.<BR/><BR/>Very appreciated.David Urresti Chiuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07920110744208099484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27563605.post-89147305464564775822007-02-23T09:06:00.000-08:002007-02-23T09:06:00.000-08:00Thanks a lot for sharing this Victor!

Basically I feel that if you have an extreme with no key on it (such us by tilting the tangent so the spline goes beyond the keys) you may lose the extreme later on if you need to retime your animation by moving keys around in time. It also helps with organization to have keys on all your extremes.Victor Navonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17953361725259997163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27563605.post-10758375452418990612007-02-23T05:46:00.000-08:002007-02-23T05:46:00.000-08:00Excellent tute, Victor.

I remember for my first animation in Animation:Master, I was struggling quite a bit in getting decent results, and it was not until I learned to manipulate the splines that things started to come together. This has been a great refresher, I am looking forward to part 2!<BR/><BR/>One quick question: You mention -<BR/><BR/>"I could get a similar effect by tilting the tangent handles of key 2 or 3 without changing the value, but this would force the spline beyond the range of its keys, which I try to avoid."<BR/><BR/>Would you mind explaining why you don't want the spline beyond the range of the key? What is the detrimental effect? My guess is that it is movement you have less control over, but I am not sure.Tom Dell'Aringahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03551141840277227804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27563605.post-84486681415046749682007-02-22T20:58:00.000-08:002007-02-22T20:58:00.000-08:00Thanx a lot man. this is the only part i still get...Thanx a lot man. this is the only part i still gets screwed up! nw it's a lot clear to me ..
