[MsTurboSquid]

[alexdelrio01]

from were do you get that program

by the way your videos are aswome

[dalecaldalecal]

Jeff, do you ever work with mocap or teach about cleaning mocap up? I was messing around with some carnegie mellon mocap but couldn't get it to look right on my character, I think because the proportions were different.

Also have you tried Mixamo? I think they have some sort of characterization for using different characters. Their Auto-Rigger seems neat as well. Anyway, nice animation.

[Qurlles]

[TheCoasterThrill]

that green dude can jump pretty high

[boblester122]

@TheCoasterThrill he is a rubber..

[nuribaba13]

i think there is a problem on the jumping dudes leg positions, that leg shouldnt go back if u wanna go up. it looks more like gonna start a sprint. i cant feel power on the right leg it follows like tail. watch some basketball, that may help.

[rsuyash]

Try the new messiah studio

basic version is $10 and pro is $40 for limited time only

[shaunberry1982]

[arsehole420]

[thetonedeafmusician]

@thegamehbk65 From what I can read at the top of his monitor: Animation master 2002

[Tracer73866]

its 3d max?.... or what?

[MultiJacob123]

What software?

[MercinaryStudios]

3Ds Max is a modeling program and basic animation program. AutoDesk makes it along with several other animation programs and some composite programs such as Toxik, Composite, Smoke, and several others. Maya, Softimage, and Motion builder are some of their better modeling and animation programs.

[MultiJacob123]

I use 3d max but what is that for program?

[BoomMob]

Where do you get the animator from?

[2010Mrsurfer]

@BoomMob Well, you can buy 3ds max which is modelling, but it also has built in animation thing, which you can make your models move and stuff, but its around £3,400, or you could look for some free animation modelling software, which I dont exactly know any :(

[Choiceinator]

@2010Mrsurfer or u could just download it for free using a torrent

[hawai9870]

thats animation maker 2002

[ImpendentSorrowHeart]

@hawai9870 Animation MaSTer

[goranification]

You should put in the tittle the name of the software.

[blinky465]

[togeux]

@floresanimation

Really??

Hum....I think it's more longer mmm ~4 hours no?

[mohamedhazemohamed]

@floresanimation lol

[LasseLundster]

@floresanimation That's what I thought after I went to youtube.

I also spent 20k on a bachelor and it ain't got shit on the teaching skill of people on Youtube.

[guzforster]

@floresanimation Same here. But it's very old and if you know animation, these are not very good animation examples...

[cobywatkins]

@floresanimation ha ha ha youtube teaches you everthing.

[xSwesnipEx]

@floresanimation Paint

[AlexanderLee1]

@floresanimation Only one tiny part of it.

[hellfang132]

@floresanimation hahahahahahahaha sucker

[Mixamo3DAnimation]

This is a great way of adding moving hold to the character. Another way is keying the very last pose first, then letting the computer fill in the inbetweens. After that, taking the pose a couple frames before the last pose and dragging it about 6-8 frames back in the timeline, and keying it. This will add a more subtle slow out and a moving hold.

[portomopivot]

its lick pivot

[Marcelorpg]

liked

[rewe97]

@Marcelorpg what is that for a programm?

[Marcelorpg]

@rewe97 what?

[bhoot70]

it is jeff lew...

[jackl1]

that rig is awsome

anyone know how to set up a rig like that ??

[WarIncorporated]

Whats this program?

[ilovecyprustoomuch]

ok master vouse i am not work in universal but i am an animator too

tell me ...... in matrix reloaded what programm u use for keeping the human figure??

[kenchiro69]

This clip lights me the exit!

Thank you!

[Baldoxxx4000]

im a maya user and this is helpful..

[snaroki]

animation master?

[6daylater]

what software is this

is it free

[oliversimonnet]

its Maya i think

[spaghettimoon]

Great advice!

[glassryu]

ah dude did you make the killer bean movie? that was so bad a** beautiful animation, cool story, nice little twist. and leaves room for another any one watching this vid should go take a look at it NOW

[chihabgoku]

is that hard ?

[faizilcool]

He is using LightWave!

[illTangent]

it says Animation Master in the corner...

[racoonuttv]

hey what 3d prgram are u using? also i am thinking of applying to PIXAR for an animation post and i need to make a reel to show off my skills. DO you think it will be hard to be chose, would something like you Killer bean trailer be something defentily good and that kind of quality is what i should be aiming for?

[sweetgreggo]

Aim for WALL-E quality. If you can't match that on your demo, don't bother sending it to Pixar.

[yUnGMoNeY98]

isnt this called anticipation??

[cafecitojcv]

No, anticipation is the action before the action. A Moving Hold in other words is a long Ease Out or Follow Through. It's meant to let the pose continue very subtly so that the action does not come to a abrupt stop.

[mapflu]

@yUnGMoNeY98 No.

[3DandSpecialEffects]

i love this video :)

good job!

[iamspid3rman]

I dunno but for me this is a little difficult to master. One animator told me is was just merely an extreme of the prior pose easing in to it.

[kiwikarateguy]

Just use lightwave 3d 8! its easy to use and highly effective!

[Tazy50]

dude lightwave is soooo hard!!!!! i can't figure it out! i can't even mirror a model after watching tutorial

[kiwikarateguy]

light wave is pretty easy to use! i thought 3d was this complex thing that only scientific guys could dop, but its not really that hard to do, its alot of fun too!

[Flashlight1996]

What is this program and how much does it cost? Or is it free? I want it! Id love to animate in 3D

[KOFwhiz]

if you pause at 1:39, the program that he is using, is called Animation Master.

[masterpiraka]

Get ready to spend a few thousand dollars then :/

[Flashlight1996]

Screw that! That's why torrents are made!

[masterpiraka]

That's the spirit.

[ChechBETA]

@Flashlight1996 Muahahahahahah!!!!

[Tazy50]

does anyone know how to get animation master for free?

[Tazy50]

hey this tutorial has taught me something today =) thanks man

[drtyjp3]

I want to make animation like this!

[randomewolf]

wait they use animation master for transformers?!?!?!?

[dynamiteT1]

If they do im so happy cuase i own animation master!

[randomewolf]

mo to ive already worked on one with animation master

[randomewolf]

me not mo (bad spelling)

[MajorMunchies95]

Jeff, can i get this character model anywhere? The green One?

[Otaiguru]

What software you use???

[OzbyBK]

Animation:Master I think it´s called

But why care about software, anyone will work. Why not Blender, it´s free ...

[loonycooney22]

yh but this looks waaaay easier to use

[Tazy50]

but blender doesn't have enough tools to make it look photorealistic without days of work. in maya or 3ds max u can make it look photorealistic in seconds. or maybe minutes

[OzbyBK]

Tazy50, thats just rubbish. Look at "Big buck bunny" and then you will change your mind. Its all about knowing the software and the skill-level.

Personally I use Maya but after using Blender, I can do the same thing there without to much trouble

[OzbyBK]

Okey. What tools for animation do you miss in Blender?

[Tazy50]

auto framing

[Tazy50]

biped. frame window render. mental ray. standdard objects. primitive objects.

[agustinbs]

Tazy50:

Did you ever tryed Blender?

Man, please compare the amount of clicks that you must to do, for example, to set Ambient Occlusion (skylight) in 3DStudio Max, and then try the same in Blender

I Used 3DMax, but i leave it because in blender i got so many tools and you can do things fasther and easier.

Did you tryed Luxrender engine with blender? is 10 times easier to setup than MentalRay and 3DMax....and you get amazing photorealistic renders.

[Tazy50]

yes i tried blender. i love blender i use it all the time. im just saying 3ds max has a few tools that let you do a few things quicker. like, you can rig a character much quicker with the "biped" tool. but i already removed 3ds max and now i use maya mainly.

[BodaciousDerek]

awesome stuff, this really helps

[jweinrub]

Excellent Jeff. That's how I do most of my animations as well.
