He's cute, he's cuddly...he's TAILOR!

Overlapping action. It's the concept of the week, you know, and to try it out we get a fuzzy tail as I may have mentioned in an earlyier blog. Well, i wasn't kidding! Boy is he fuzzy and cute! Well, he's a ball, actually, but he does have a fluffy tail that follows along behind him as he bounces to and fro'. Here's the sketch blocking of the shot, a simple movement across the screen:



So, the next step was takin it to the ol' computer and seeing what we can do with this little furry bastard. Turns out it's not as easy as I thought, and my first attempt was a bit "floppy". I've tried as I go through these assignments to add a little touch here and there, as well as just trying to "push" the animation as much as I can and still have it feel natural. So click on the image below to see the revision of the Tailor bounce across the screen.
