I've just finished this weeks animation assignment, and it's the one I'm most pleased with out of all the ones I've done. It's certainly nowhere near perfect and I spent little time on the details so I'm sure I'll get plenty of critique to work with, but it's the one I feel has the most character and appeal.
We had to animate Stewie (as he is called) pushing a heavy object up an incline, so I did him pushing a heavy ball (I figured that allowed for more possibilies than a box).
It's only in blocking at the moment so it's jerky. Next week we'll start smoothing it. I've attached it as a 3vix quicktime movie.
A couple of weeks ago I posted the blocking of my sneek. The plan (and assignment) was to smooth it out for last weeks assignment. I got about halfway, but then everything started to screw up, and the result was I couldn't submit a finished animation. I emailed the maya file to my mentor who took a look. Turns out I animated the 'layout control' (which allows you to place the character at the start of a scene) but you aren't supposed to. All coordinates on the model feed from the layout control, so animating the layout control gives you unpredictable results on everything else. Ah well, it's a learning process and I didn't get penalised for it
Let me know what you think of this weeks!

It does make me wonder what is at the end of the incline...
