RE: #11 Animation - 3 ESSENTIALS to live with before you start animating!

in #art7 years ago

Yes, yes, yeeeeees! reference is EVERYTHIIIIII~~~NNG!
I'm so guilty of doing that. Having an idea and just steam roll right ahead without really honing it down first to what I actually want to do.
I then usually end up spending hours and days trying to do the thing and ending up scrapping it all and starting over because it just won't work due to lack of precise planning beforehand.
But at least it'll go faster the second time around, since by then I've figured out all the problems in the scene the hard way but omg! what a time waster!
I could save myself soooooo much paiiiiin with a little more planning!!
I mean it's idiotic too, I'm a frickin artist, just thumbnailing to work out my idea better would alraedy help hahaha
yeah.. I try not to do that anymore.. but the temptation is so strooong sometiiimes! XD
Great post, as always!

Sort:  

Hahaha, Thank you for sharing your 'pain'. :D

But yea, it can really save you a lot of time if the planning is good. You not only save your own time, but others who are working together with you because the pipeline involves everyone.
We all learn ey? :D

yeah absolutely. You never stop learning. Bur honestly, to me, it's one of the joys of the job. <3
I love learning new stuff! :D

If only I get a Steem dollar everytime I jumped into something before planning ahead....I'd be a whale by now lol

I mean the creative process is suppose to be spontaneous right? load up my favorite modeling software and start pushing polys!
So I ended up with alot of abandoned/unfinished 3D models in my personal projects folder....LMAO.
