add more details to make jaw bounce looks much more better.

WEEK 3

I recorded three different live actions for the animation reference for challenge 01 and chose the third one as my final reference.

Exercise 01 Reference 01

I think the expression and action are not clear enough and need to be more concise and clear.

Exercise 01 Reference Test 02

I have basically determined the movements I want, but I am not satisfied with the body language.

Exercise 01 Reference Test 03

The body language and movements were what I wanted, but it was my first time trying to record expressions and I was a bit unsuccessful. My facial body language is not very proficient yet and it was a bit stiff.

Exercise 01 Blocking

Challenge 01 animation blocking with reference.

WEEK 4

Exercise 01 Polished

I added more details to the challenge 01 animation and polished it.

WEEK 5

For Challenge 02, I choose clip 25 as the audio that I will use to acting the reference.

Because Clip 25 is a recording with a more passionate tone, when performing I also tried to make some fast-swinging and powerful movements to express emotions with body language.

I spread the hand more and change the eyebrow's position to make it looks much more better

change the position of left arm

change the movement and animation for both hands, to make the movements look more exaggerated and powerful.

WEEK 9

This week I was fix some details in my animation and finish my animation challenge 02.

When I was making challenge02, I always felt that the swing range of some animations was not satisfactory, as if the force was light and floating, so I checked the graph editor and improved the animation.
