I wanted to kick this off by sharing some of my reference material, etc.
Presentation - the 12 Principles
This is really nothing fancy, but I cobbled it together to fill in some of the gaps on those nights when only half the class showed up.
I've maintained a blog for some time, though it's lapsed into obscurity after not consistently posting the past year, but has some lecture notes which I'm attempting to distill into a more cogent format, though has the occasional nugget, like how to speak like Michael Caine.
Some more potentially useful links.
- maya tools
- somewhat crappy quadraped cycle demo
- fixed norman (download link)
- Norman with more realistic proportions
- Basic pose based blocking technique (stepped mode for beginners)
- 2011-12 based shelf (coming soon)
I don't hold any of these up as being anything terribly fantastic, but have helped me to fill in the gaps to a degree
