Assignment 7 : Animating One Emotion

Homework: One Emotion Exercise
A pantomime exercise! No dialog and no moving cameras.
Animate a character showing one emotion
Use the Magritte character rig, props are okay
4 seconds max in 24 fps... make it straight and to the point
Make sure you go through the steps. Pose to Pose.
Quicktimes due beginning of class.

"Remember what Ed Hooks said about adreneline moment... that character will remember that moment forever.
Think of an emotion and figure out how to express that emotion in a few poses well 4 seconds.
You can use minimal props if you have too. Remember the example I said last week? a biker wining a race and raising his hands with joy."

"He's gonna remember that race forever. Think of a very fond memory (emotion) that you can use for the animation." - Ruel
