Tutorial 2: The Puppet and Jump

Here's the first jumping exercise with the little springy foot man thing. It was relatively easy. The only tricky part was the fact that the various symbols didn't always move together from one major pose to another. In other words, his head would float off his body which would detach from the foot as he moved to the peak of his jump. Because of this, I had to add extra keys in the passing poses to stick all the parts back together.




Aaaand, the second. He's a blue penguin! I had a little fun with him, and really exaggerated the squash and stretch as he jumps, almost treating him like a bouncing ball from the last assignment. For some reason, I didn't experience the problem I had with the other; all his limbs stayed in tact as he bounced around.
