Choose one of the provided rigged characters. Take the character and keyframe them in 3 different poses. The poses should push the figure into very different gestures (try not to have two gestures too similar to each other). Push the rig as much as you can, to get as much exaggeration and performance from the character. Use the camera to render a picture of each of the three poses (totalling three images).
You may edit any of the characters (such as changing their colors/textures) or acquire your own rigged model for the assignment so long as the character has a rig you can manipulate, and that you put the model into the poses yourself.
What I will be looking at with grading:
- Does the character show weight and balance?
- Does the character show personality?
- What actions are they performing?
- Does the figure push the rig, or does it play it safe?
- Does the camera enhance the figure?
Helpful Hints:
- References such as 2D drawings or photographs can be used to help figure out what pose to do and the mechanics of that pose.
- When putting the character into a pose, especially if it's referencing a photograph, can that pose be exaggerated for more clarity?
- Some rigs are more versatile than others. Explore the rig and see everything you can do with it.
