3 HIT COMBO ASSIGNMENT - Comparing LiveAction, 2D, 3D

Another comparison video for Animation Assignment Number Two: the 3 Hit Combo!

Had to speed up the Live Action reference because I didn't want the video to be too long. Finding the timing was a huge issue for me in this assignment. The aerial flip was also a difficult task for me since the head was suppose to stay in one place as the rest of the body rotates around it. But it was lots of fun and good learning experience.

There is a bat twirl at the end for the Live Action and 2D, but I didn't have enough time do do it in 3D. Ah well, maybe in another assignment.

The model I used was Scout from Team Fortress 2. It was downloaded from Creative Crash:

Good Advices that were given to me:
"Don't bite off more than you can chew"  "Keep it short and simple; and have it be really REALLY nice to look at"
