Nom Nom Nom! Started out as a personal challange into a more unique locomotion style but couldn't help adding an attack, too much fun animating it. Also first post 💜 joined to connect with more cool animators out there! #animation #3Danimation #gamedev #gameart

Made a Top Gun inspired cinematic trying out some of the new features in Unreal 5.5, in particular the new sequencer and movie render queue updates as well as Lumen and Nanite, had a lot of fun and learnt a lot making it! vimeo.com/1079283336 #UnrealEngine #UE5 #animation

@DerekP_Animator Basic FK and then Aim Space
Martin@TuxedoPato

@Artemas_Art 1) Make rough poses for cloth with FK 2) Set controls to aim space 3) Apply offset to aim space controls 4) Use aim space to refine the cloth, fix collision, and reanimate parts as necessary Aim space lets you "sculpt" the cloth which makes it easy to pose as shown in the video

I've had the pleasure of prototyping some gameplay elements to help define the artistic style, timing, and the way Space Marines deal with Tyranids. Here’s a rough block out of a finisher with untextured proxy models. #SpaceMarine2 #Animation

@Chris_G_Art 100% reapply, it’s something people don’t do enough, external factors aside there’s usually something specific missing from the reel or criteria that wasn’t met, reach back out, ask them what those factors were, action them, show your passion and ability to take feedback

A selection of the hundreds of animations made for Age of Darkness: Final Stand as the Lead Animator, I worked with some amazingly talented people at PlaySide. Some of the animations shown are polish passes over the incredible work of Taliesan Arnold and Neeshma Sadanandhan.

Found some time to return to these soldier animations I worked on a few years ago, always fun to return with fresh eyes and apply new lessons, they certainly aren't perfect but happy to call them done and move onto better things! #animation #3Danimation #gamedev #gameart

@DerekP_Animator There are connected keys which might be what you're wanting? If you paste connect, the pasted key will update to whatever the original key is changed to. Global offset in animbot is also amazing for keeping selected keys relative to whatever you adjust

Animators who use Maya, what are some functions/tools you'd love to have to improve your workflow? Something to make life easier?

@NikosStudios No idea why it doesn’t exist already, seems so basic and helpful for animating cycles, like some sort of keyframe sync or something like that

@DerekP_Animator Animbot is a lifesaver! How about something you wish you had that doesn't exist yet?

@goodheart_jacob It really depends on the studio structure, everybody defines their titles differently, the usual distintion between seniors and leads is that leads don't get to animate as much as their time is more spend managing the team, giving feedback and stuck in meetings haha

@JAIME_JOTA Yeah I used The Setup Machine 3 and created additional bones and controls for the pouches and weapons, there are probably some better options out there for rigs to use, I was just familiar with it at the time ✌️
