Critical Report_01

The first thing I did for this research was to think of some keywords:

Character Design, Regional Characterization, Developmental Changes, Absorbent Attire Graphics, Personality Traits, Aesthetic Differences

Question:

How aesthetic differences caused by different cultural background in characterdesign? Take some broadcast animation as examples.

-Using some popular croacast animation films as examples,we can find a big difference on the character design.(e.g. The characters of Chinese animation is more realistic style, and the American characters are more extravagant).The aesthetic differeces caused by different culture are reflected in the character design, and I think this point is very interesting.

-Even though To adapt the international market, the arts style or narrative structure of Chinese animation films nowaday is influenced by western animation.There is still can find some difference in character design.

week 8 : walking cycles

After the feedback of the assignments, I found some problems of my walking cycles.

  1. No rotation with y-x axle
  2. Do rotation with x-z axle
  3. Do more squash and stretch and keep it with the same amount every step.
  4. Avoid popping with the knees
  5. Feet do not slide
