How to animate an ANIMAL run cycle!

not all four-legged animal run cycles are the exact same. For one, the anatomy and build of an animal will change the way its run looks. Also, one example difference is that a dog will become air born twice in its cycle, and a horse just once. This tutorial should work best at least for canines and felines.

  • I don't think I've ever seen anyone use that little paw chart to keep track of which foot or paw is on the ground in a given frame. That's awesome! Seems like a useful tool.

  • Can you also make a tutorial on how spacing works between the frames? As in, on which part of the screen comes the next drawing? )I’m sorry that I can’t explain it properly

    @LittleHiDS@LittleHiDS4 ай бұрын

    • Close together will have a less amount of movement between the frames and farther apart will be more movement, I don’t really get what you’re asking so this is the best I can explain Do you mean easing?

  • Remember to use reference videos of watching actual animals running about preferably in slow motion to analyze how they run and make sure to watch it in normal speed to make sure you have the speed of your final piece correct

  • Don't start animating without using basic shapes. Yes, this particular copied dog may work well, but without using simple shapes, it will be extremely inconvenient for you to make animals yourself

  • The animation is beautiful!! The only thing that bugs me out is the head not following perfect arcs, it's especially noticeable in the slowed down version when focusing on the eyes.

    @ipo7532@ipo75324 ай бұрын

    • Thanks! If by arcs you mean the semi-circular head motion, its not going to go in a perfectly circular loop with perfect arcs, no matter how smooth an animal is running. It's important to remember that the head is directly effected by the organic movements of the body and not an individual floating object
