Description
Yeahhh... so... this was last week's Character Animation assignment, which was the most unrealistic assignment of all---animate a guy pushing a rock up a hill (as in, Greek mythology's Sisyphus) for THIRTY SECONDS... IN A WEEK.Needless to say, nobody finished in time, and I wasn't no exception.
I shot it early in the morning right before class so the timing's off, it's unfinished and there's some huge weight problems (namely when he takes a huge step backwards, WTF happened there I have no idea). I think that except the tiny part in the middle where his feet slide, it looks like complete utter crap, I hate it and I won't ever finish it.
I'll scrap it later.

A week or a week-end?
Nicely done, despite the rush. We can sense the efforts (of the pusher...)

damn son! that's fabulously done! the effort of pushing that rock is quite apparent, and the comedic timing is wonderful.
A+!

Ha! thats great! 30 seconds in a week? Welcome to my uni. lol I think my sack animation was 30 seconds+ and that was done in a week, then we had a week to clean it up and colour it. Crazy.
I like what you have done though, really nice actions. Shame you didnt finish it...maybe you should have made it such a struggle.

I actually did this in two days only---which I suppose is great for the time spent on it. I just don't like it though, and I still got an 8 out of 10---the mark actually discouraged me from fixing it. I think the teacher could've been tougher on me... bleh.
π: 0 β©: 1
you get marked out of 10? lol We have a percentage based on certain things...like time wasting research...
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah I know it's stupid. The teacher marks it on first viewing, too. When I was in college we'd have percentages for everything---timing, volume consistency, cleanups, arcs, even dope sheets... in university only a few select people even USE dope sheets. It's absurd.
π: 0 β©: 1
what!? You dont even have to use dopesheets!? How can they be prepared for industry if they never use them!?
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah, I know, but thing is---we're not supposed to be prepared for industry in my program, we're supposed to be filmmakers. The problem is, most people think they'll be fully prepared for the industry also... thank goodness I went to college in that field beforehand, so I have both.
But yeah. Dope sheets are a must anyway, for industry or independent filmmaking... I don't know why they don't teach us to use it. (Most people who use it right now do because I showed them hahaha.)

Stone seems to roll a little too fast, but its no biggie.

I know... like I said the timing's all wrong. I just uploaded it 'cause I worked my ass off, but the deadline was impossible. I just hate it now. Thanks though!

superbe idΓ©e
vive le mythe Sisyphe ou le paradigme de l'absurditΓ© de la vie humaine ( avoir aussi peu de temps pour faire un tel film d'animation est absurde aussi... Γ§a faisait peut-Γͺtre partie de la dΓ©marche

super ca, j'aime! Cette histoire la, mon prof de peinture l'utilisait en analogie avec le travail de l'artiste, qui doit d'oeuvres en oeuvres pousser sa roche le plus haut possible dans la montagne de son art. recommencer du bas de ensuite, avec comme seule motivation ce que l'effort prΓ©cΓ©dent nous a apprit.
Evens

Hahaha oh man, I'm so sorry. That must have been awful. XD; Looks good though! I miss 2D animation so badly... everything we're doing now is Max or Maya, which are significantly less fun.
