Mike Ricks Animation Blog

Right so this one was just talking about the Playback settings in real time. The tutorial had an thing about RV player but Maya does not seem to have have that on my version and i couldn't find anything about it being installed or a feature officially. but otherwise thats gonna be fundamentals complete That tiger bot is cool!

So picking up from what i left over from summer i got to play with some MASH tools which looks like it can be a set of procedural tools that could be useful and i have no idea what i could really do with them yet Seems pretty straight forward basically just created a text object and when i applied the mash to the text then added an animation to it to make it wobble and then added a falloff signal that after it passes through it makes them stop which is really cool! I made a play blast video but its too big to upload here.

While i have not been documenting over the summer what i did proactively  working on animation for Maya nor did i save any real project files except that walk cycle i already showed. would it be possible i could work on more advanced things or should i go back to these. either way i wouldn't mind but would prefer working on more advanced tutorials if possible as i am familiar with a good portion of Maya animation controls.
