Here is my second try at the push exercise. I started this on paper and eventually move on to TVPaint so that i could test the animation straight away. The traditionally drawn key poses helped me focus more on the movement. I had already a rough idea of what I wanted to go for after the stop motion tryout, but I soon found that it was harder to convey the exaggeration on paper.
I also had to rework the timing quite a lot and I might have come to a good point, although I’m still struggling with how the torso and the head moves when the feet are sliding on the ground. I have acted the movement out several times to help me understand the dynamic of the body, but i think my problem is that the proportions of the torso change progressively and gets out of model.
