This document explains how to create a run cycle working with curves.
This workflow can be used in any 3D software able to work with
animation curves.<br>
<br>

The axes mentioned in this document can vary depending on the software
used. Although I have used Maya to do this tutorial, I have also shown
the axes for 3d Studio Max.<br>
<br>

The time (frames) used for this exercise is 20 (10 frames per stride). The time of the software should be adjusted to <b>24 fps</b> (film).<br>
<br>

We will be using 20 frames just to simplify the exercise, since the main poses will correspond to frames <strong>0 ? 5 ? 10 ? 15 ? 20</strong>.<br>

<p><font size="2">Until
I know there are 2 main ways of animating cycles of any kind, poses and
animating independently the different parts of the body.</font></p>
<p><font size="2">This tutorial is based on the second one, animating independently each part of the body creating cycling movements.<br>
<br>

At first, if you have never animated a cycle like this, and if, as I
was, you are too used to the pose to pose thing, doing cycles this way
can be a little strang<em>e.</em></font>
</p>
<p><font size="2">Once you understand the thing and the way of creating cycle in this way the results are more than good.<br>
<br>

It goes without saying that the author of this document hasn't
developed this "technique" or way of doing cycles, which is well known
by professional animators. <br>
