I actually have no idea how to make a stickman stand up from a lying down position.

Like I said you were doing good with formation until he did the flip, now, try again.

EDIT: Just a quick loop run I made, notice how the back doesn't move, that's bad.

The head shakes, and the arm looks unnatural.

What I meant was, how to make him go from lying down to standing up without using a flip, or anything similar.

Look at your animation again, before he flips, look at the position, keep going from there and practise, then you should find the answer yourself.

Looseness/easing practice. Very quick to make (less than 2 mins)

Seems pretty good...try a flow test.

Um... I'm not exactly sure how to do that...
[EDIT]
Lol, this is the worst walk I've ever done.

Do another some more easing tests, but this time without stickmen, use shapes, balls whatever...

Now, I shall go and play MW2

'Nother looseness test.




[EDIT] Flow...ish?

please give advice for these... i feel they dont look right

well Excellion1498, think on how you would get up.



maybe that's not how you would get up, but i just wanted to show you what to shoot for... (im a noob so my advice wouldn't necessarily be the best advice)

Okay... I don't think my advice really counts, but the only thing I can see wrong with this animation is the one flip. It looks a bit strange, to me, where his limbs are flopping all over the place. But my advice doesn't count, because I don't know **** about good pivot animations.
Another thing, please don't post twice in a row before anyone else does. That's what the edit button is for.

[EDIT] I think this is what ghost frames look like... kind of a fail, though.







[EDIT] I made an easing/4 copy blur practice. My first one, CC please.

thanks for the help:D
but i still dont see what i could do to improve it:confused:

Oh god I'm rusty as shit, still i'm gonna post it anyway.
