@ALan Major: Lost Boy - Post-Viz - Animation Progress #3 Version 2

I have added in movement to present Graeme's spine and cog control and a breathe in and out for the exhale of his cigarette - I think he looks much more vivacious and alive now, I do think there is room for improvement, I still need to animate the eyebrows too.

    Hi - Move the 'COG - Centre of Gravity' control side to side like he is shifting weight slightly between poses. If you don't use the COG a character will always look like he has a drawing pin through his pelvis/centre keeping him pinned to the background. Does that make sense?

    Hi - Check out this video (link below). It goes over the process that I was explaining to you yesterday. In terms of Maya it is an old video now but the animtion process hasn't changed. You should start with the COG (Root).

    Go to the Animation section and then "Q: How should I structure my animation?"
