First Time Blocking

Missed last weeks class so feel I'm a bit behind but here is my first pass at blocking my scene. Let me know what you think. Have not included all of the facial expressions just attempting to get the body working correctly.

There are some nice things happening here, I think. Just pauseing at around "No, no, that's too limited" ... I think that posing works pretty well, which the shorter character's ahnd framed by his white shirt. The issue that sticks out most to me at this stage of development is how the taller character's elbow seems glued in place in the air while the rest of his hand moves around ("Are you saying no one ... will work with me?"). Something about that seems off to me.

... also this is my comment to let David know I have found/can read the blog ;)

good to see you here Nicole :)

Camera feels like it could be framed a bit more to the left. The tall character seems to loose focus - is he looking away because of what the other character is saying, or is he just looking at something else?

Thanks Nicole and David. Yes am still working on the tall character so the arms are stiff and the camera work needs to be changed. I have the tall character looking away like he's not really listening to what he's being told. I guess it needs more work to get the intent across. Good notes will make adjustments and post sooner.

Did you use only Ik for arms? I feel a little bit IKish so I think arms need more arc movement.

Kent Brown said...

Thanks Yoonsoo. Arms are in fk just need to add the arcs in. This is early pass of blocking.

The short guy's posing is really good, I think it reads very well except at the beginning I am a little confused what he is doing with his right hand.
Also the tall guy just needs a little adjustment. Either looking away and pouting or looking at his friend intently. Right now it's kind of in-between so it's a little harder to read.

Its looking good, I like your poses though you might be repating the hand gesturs on the biger character a few to many times.

I miss a bit of a reacton from the skiny guy when hess told "no no no", but seeing that this is the blocking you might have plans for that later.
