Our task was to make 2 walk cycles, one is normal vanilla walk cycle and the other one is attitude walk cycle.

Progress:

Vanilla walk cycle -

Fig.1.1 Progress vanilla walk cycle

First, I found the reference 1 video as a tutorial video and started make based on the video.
I had to redo so many times because I was not used to do the character rigging which in turn caused me hard ship in terms of moving the body part. I was so frustrated everytime I had to redo but at the same times i was having fun time because I knew I was learning and improving and I was gonna get it right.

After finishing the animation with the first reference, I realized i didn't really like it so I did the research more and found the 2.3 references. By that time I was used to with the work flow so I was able to finish faster. I was satisfied with the result so I added few details like blinking,  extra
hands movements to finish it up.


Attitude walk cycle -

I actually used my seniors work as reference and I realized the guy look like his chest is up and looks like he is looking down and his arms are swinging more. I used my vanilla walk cycle as a base and made some changes to fit my realization.

Final Outcome:

Fig.1.4 Final Compilation

I rendered 3 different angles for each walk cycle to showcase better.


Feedback: He said both of my walk cycles look okay but needed a bit of weight shift.
