About the video: Blocking I
Overview
“It's time to do a first stepped blocking. This is where we will mark the golden poses. We will define each action of the character, as well as the timing and spacing of our plane, which will give us the necessary information to identify the lines of action, silhouettes, energy, balance, etc. At the end, we will have finished an approximation of the mechanics of the movement of our plane, the rhythm and duration, as well as the movement of the camera.”
In this video lesson Kike Oliva addresses the topic: Blocking I, which is part of the Domestika online course: Advanced Animation of 3D Characters. Learn to bring your projects to life with realistic movements through the analysis of complex physics.
