any recommendations on how to make this better

He's leaning quite far forward, and maybe you could loosen the elbows up a little. It's pretty good though.

It could use a bit more anticipation and followthrough. A somersault is a pretty big movement to come out of nowhere.

Definately loosen the arms up a bit. Try to imagine the way your lower arm moves in a slightly delayed motion compared to your upper arm. For example when you start moving the upper arm back, maybe keep the lower arm moving forward for a frame or two before making it move back with the rest of the arm. I don't think he is leaning forward too far. It's just that his back is stiff and you haven't really implemented a feeling of gravity as he takes a stride.

This is an easing test


Anybody got any suggestions to make it better or is it fine

If you don't like Pivot, leave the section. The program is only as good as the person using it. Not to mention Pivot does actually allow you to animate sticks with a far higher level of detail.

There's nothing wrong with the easing. The first suggestion I would make is increase the frame rate. If you load pivot there should be a frame rate slider, change it to about 24fps. There's no right/wrong way to easing. It depends on style and the scenario.

take a look at the front leg. it seems too far outward. the arms look good except they spread too far outward and are jelly-ish

sorry for rushed CnC. try looking at yourself when u walk and animate it thru that perspective, it helps!

this is all i can make but i have more
