Wanna Joinin for Animation Challenge ??

[hyenaman]

Hey animators.....<BR>The modelling community seems to be getting their act together with the speed modelling thingy....<BR>how about we have a little monthly 10 sec club type animation thingy going...<BR>U think it's possible???<BR>key in...<BR>kudos<BR><BR><edited><editID>Abhishek</editID><editDate>38658.1580787037</editDate></edited>

[hyenaman]

maybe we can post a simple rig here which every one can use...<br>
as simple as IKJoe himself...<br>
what say???<br>

[hells angel]

hahahahaha.......<img src="smileys/smiley36.gif" border="0">.<br>
where the hell is andy, abhishek and chand?i'm not much of animator so
i really cant help here......although i'm sure i'd love to give it a
shot sometime!! <br>
so hey animators!!!....get together and lets start a trainin session or
comp to help ppl out on the same lines of the modelling sessions!!<br>

[Abhishek]

<P>Hey Hyna,</P>
<P>Thats a great idea. Im in it...tho sry for the late reply. Actually i was planning to have a Animation Challenge on a big scale with a grand prize and a good panel of judges in it. So dint go for announcing anything.</P>
<P>But hey, lets start something to make a start for animation challenges. Lets check the responce of Tantrics and lets go for it !! </P>
<P>And yea, for a later thing -&nbsp; How about creating a small group of people on tantra to create a free rig for our own animators, the way the did it on 10second club ?? I can contribute for setting up the rig if we decide to make it in Maya. What say ??</P>

[hyenaman]

sure!!! thats a great idea...<br>
we need a character design a simple one with just basic form and a
simple mouth for sync...no complex shapes...so we can steer clear of
issues with complex rigging and deformations....stick to pure body
acting and basic lyp sync...<br>
i could upload a couple of drawings in the next couple of days...<br>
what say???<br>.....We could also use an available rig like LowMan(pretty cool) if the janta is comfy with that...<img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0"><br>

[Mayawhiz]

<P>Hey guys,</P>
<P>I am innnnnnn.......</P>
<P>And i think let people use what they wanna use as their rigs. what matter the most is kind of animation taken out of those rigs...........So for that matter whether it is lowman or packageman who cares let people use what they are comfortable with...........What we are concentrating over here is animation, if i m not wrong........</P>
<P>Cheerssssssss......</P><edited><editID>Mayawhiz</editID><editDate>38652.0798611111</editDate></edited>

[hyenaman]

<p>....What we are concentrating over here is animation over here if i m not wrong........</p>
<br>
<br>
Sure thats right...but having every one on the same rig will make the
voting process more clear..there will be no fancy modelling or
texturing and lighting to get distracted by...only the performance
right???<br>
Just a thought though...cos even something as simple as IKJoe can perform....<br>
kudos....<br>

[Abhishek]

<P><FONT style=": #c0c0c0">Hi,</FONT></P>
<P><FONT style=": #c0c0c0">Ill go for using any rig for now to start cgTantra with the animation challenges but for the people who are interested in making a small team for creating a rig, ill start another thread.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT style=": #c0c0c0">Lets have more responce and more people gearin up for the Animation Sessions and lets kick start with it !!</FONT></P>

[dindhin]

&nbsp;not yet buddy,,,,&nbsp; only just started rigging chapter...&nbsp; <br>
<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp; let me see wht i can do in animation....&nbsp; <br>
<br>
&nbsp;hey dudes ,, start the challange,, sure im in.............<br>

[rdxace]

<P>hi everyone. a couple of questions to start with:</P>
<P>1. are the rigs going to be developed in max or maya?</P>
<P>2. when do we hear about the anim-challenge (is the thread up? if yes, can someone&nbsp;post the link.)</P>
<P>i am very excited about both, the animation challenge and the rig development. looking forward to some great stuff.</P>
<P>regards.</P>

[Abhishek]

<P>Hi RDX,</P>
<P>1) The Rigs will be developed in all the packages, depends on the expertise of Riggers on cgTantra. Maya, Max and XSI - all are targeted so that animators of all the packages may use it. Help us spread the word about this&nbsp;among the&nbsp;Riggers.<BR><BR>2) The Anim-Challenge link/image will be posted on home page as its started. Keep posting in your willingness to join up in this thread. We will start it as we get enough responce and decide upon a topic for it.<BR><BR>3) Let me know if you Tantrics want to be notified by a news letter about the Anim - Challenge.<BR><BR>4) For talking about Rig session, go to this thread &gt; <A href="http://www.cgtantra.com//forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2376&amp;PN=1" target="_self"> http://www.cgtantra.com//forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2376&amp; PN=1</A></P>

[vishy123]

Another challenge wowwwwwww. i wana try my hands on it. who knows i might just turn out to be an animator.<IMG src="smileys/smiley2.gif" border="0">

[snail]

hey this sounds intresting. and abhi ya a newsletter might help getting more ppl involved. it definitely cant do any harm.

[Abhishek]

<P>Hi Guys,</P>
<P>Lets pull in more animators to buckle up for this and make it big. Ill request some of the senior animators to help us out judging too. And will be posting on home page as we decide on something.</P>
<P>Snail - Ill definetly post a newsletter..untill n unless people dont get back with complains of gettin bugged <IMG src="smileys/smiley2.gif" border="0"></P>

[snail]

<P>well ya u should be careful about that. u c someone might just sue u for bugging them. <IMG src="smileys/smiley36.gif" border="0"></P>
<P>so how can i help?</P>

[andy_maxman]

hey hyena,<br>
<br>
thats a great thread you started man.<br>
<br>
brotherHells,<br>
i just happened to bump in to this thread today. howz ya doin'?<br>
<br>
would keep an eye out for the proceedings. keep at it, people. <br>

[hyenaman]

There you are Andyboy...how u doin?? heard u were down...<br>
Hope u in good shape now man..<br>
lets get this thing going man...<br>
think it will be real cool.<br>
all we need is flurry of responses...<br>
go tell all ur animator friends out there....]<br>
good to have u back....<br>
<br>
<br>

[andy_maxman]

hey, howdy?! man...i truly missed a chance to chill out with you guys. i hope there is a quick get-together soon. <br>
<br>
<br>
soo.....to all the youngGunz_outThere...<br>
<br>
while an animation challenge is a great idea for experienced
animators...i hope there is a plan to start basic animation exercises
thread too. i am sure there are a lot of fresh talent trying to get a
grip with animation and getting them to do basic exercises will only
solidy their base. <br>
<br>
it is very tempting to animate a character and try out different things
but it is all the more essential to have a basic understanding of the
principles behind animation. <br>
<br>
its amazing how much one can learn from animating a bouncing ball.
timing, spacing, physics, personality, squash &amp; stretch,
arcs....just about everything you will need to go head on with
animating a character. sooou....save the temptation for sometime....and
get the ball rolling. you will only have to thank yourself for doing
these exercises. <br>
<br>
pehew! <br>
<br>
hey hyena, sorry for the mini-hijack coup on your thread man....and yea...i am spreading the word already..<br>
<br>
<br>

[Earth_Craft]

<P>Hummmmmmmmmmmmmmm........</P>
<P>both sounds&nbsp; good !!!! and in both case u ppl wil be providing some sounds-either music or dialogue ...no?</P>
<P>what ever be, i will be there.........ravaging!!!!</P>
<P>Hi hi hieeeeeeee...</P>

[suchi]

&nbsp;hi m pretty new round here.grt idea u guyz hav got there.count me in

[hyenaman]

sure...<br>
a sound file will have to be posted...<br>
once the cut of time has passed..people will vote...maybe like the
front page poll thingie....make sure people dont vote more than once
for their animations<img src="smileys/smiley2.gif" border="0">...<br>
and thats about it i guess...max votes = winner.ta da.<br>
not many interested people though...<br>
hardly any response...<img src="smileys/smiley19.gif" border="0"><br>

<P>I dont knw why but this thread should be on fire.. Hope it catches soon as the challange is booming... </P>
<P>Gud Luck... </P>
<P>&nbsp;</P>

<br>
<br>
Dude u have a point there...<br>
sooooo....<br>
i suggest we have two...one for basic animation and one for experienced animators...what say..or is that too coplicated????<br>
ideas folks...<br>
<br>

<br>

hey hyena, sorry for the mini-hijack coup on your thread man....and yea...i am spreading the word already..<br>



<br>
Ahem...will deal with you when i meet you...<img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0"><img src="smileys/smiley2.gif" border="0"><br>
<br>

[andy_maxman]

<br>
i suggest we have two...one for basic animation and one for experienced animators...<br>
<br>
<br>
mightySwell..<br>

[Abhishek]

<P>Hey Hyna/Andy,</P>
<P>How about starting off with basic exercises like jumps, ligting weight, throwing an object and catch up with dialougs and bigger excercises as we get more animators jump into these sessions ??</P>
<P>Will put up a link of this thread on home page to catch the attention of more animators...</P>

[andy_maxman]

hey abhi....<br>
<br>
i am talking about extreme basics ...wow! that sounds cool...'extreme
basics by andy_maxman'.....wow! this sounds even cooler.....;) lol! ...
just abitoverdosed...<br>
<br>
( damn! howevever hard i try, i just cant get rid of this .... ) that goes like .... period. period. period. uhaargh!<br>
<br>
back to the topic -<br>
<br>
here are some of the most basic exercises which have been time-tested for years<br>
for any kind of animation. you <span style="font-style: italic;">must</span> do all of these. <br>
<br>
1) bouncing ball (bb) - a soccer ball going boink..boink..boink from right to left<br>
2) bb - different weights.&nbsp; a light and heavy ball<br>
3) bb with squash and stretch - 'squetch'<br>
4) bb - have it bounce of different objects or maybe another ball<br>
5) bb - with a tail<br>
6) pendulum - breaking the joints exercises<br>
7) for timing and spacing - move an object in figure 8 arcs <br>
<br>
|&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; |&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; |&nbsp;
&nbsp; | | |&nbsp; &nbsp; | &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; | &nbsp;&nbsp;
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; |<br>
<br>
things to keep in mind while practicing these exercises -<br>
<br>
1) physics - the bb needs to adhere to all the laws there is<br>
<br>
2) planning - doodle 'em up on paper before you cuddle 'em in your
graph editor (hey, thats yet another original...too much
adrenalin....oh! look at the floor...the creative juices are oozing all
over the place..okay..i get it...i got to stop here ) <br>
<br>
3) references - books..videos...real-life thats your 3 meal diet ( yea baby...you asked for it....by choosing to be an animator)<br>
<br>
4) yea...dont forget to fasten your seat belts ...its one helluva ride <br>
<br>
haveFun!!!<br>
<br>

[snail]

i like andy's idea....considering i might only find the time to animate a bouncing ball. <IMG src="smileys/smiley36.gif" border="0">

[hyenaman]

Yo people!!!!!whoah!!!<br>
Can u imagine the number of bouncing balls that are gonna be on this
thread....even passing lawer is gonna throw his bouncing ball in
here....<br>
boink....boink.....boink....boink.....boink....boi nk...<br>
..boink....boink.....boink....boink.....boink....b oink...<br>
..boink....boink.....boink....boink.....boink....b oink...<br>
..boink....boink.....boink....boink.....boink....b oink.... .<br>
I am already loosin it...AAAARRRRRRGGGGH!!!!<img src="smileys/smiley29.gif" border="0"><img src="smileys/smiley29.gif" border="0"><br>

[Preksha]

<P>hey this sounds great..starting with such a basic thing. i m with u andy. i would love to b in. this will give great opportunity&nbsp;to the learners. &amp; this is the right way of start for them too. this way will make all learn. </P>
<P>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; comeon guys..now we should get more response. yoooooooooooo</P>

[hells angel]

ahhh what the hell.......havent animated in loooong time!!!!...<br>
count me in too:)<br>

[Aatur]

I have never tried animation before...............I am surely in.&nbsp;

[sunny304]

mee tooo in this after reading a part of animators survival kit <img border="0" src="smileys/smiley17.gif" border="0">
<br />but not sure wats going to happen <img border="0" src="smileys/smiley4.gif" border="0">

[hyenaman]

hey!!!<br>
now every one wants in????<br>
wow!!!! to think all it took was a bouncing ball....<br>
et tu HellsAngels?????<br>
My Kung-fu grand Master once told me"If u cant beat em.....get the hell outta there"....he he <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0">...<br>
nah!!! seriously....let get this thing rolling or bouncing or whatever else as quickly as possible so we can ....<br>
So i propose that every one post a movie clip of a <span style="font-weight: bold;">Bowling ball and a rubber ball being dropped and bouncing around in the same scene..</span><br>
the most obvious contrasts in properties....<br>
how about by end of next week...all entries stop...<br>
what say peeps....????<br>

[vishy123]

hii alll. one thing i would suggest is to keep the rig same for everyone. and the reasons are this... if one guy animates a human character and the other one animates a dog then i guess theres a huge difference between the two animations and it would difficult to compare. even if its just human still thers a possiblity that the rig might be either too sophisticated or too simple whch would mean a lotta diffrnc betwen the animations. one rig will ensure that everyone has the same challenge technically bt wide possibilities creatively. that ll be cool i guess and yes comparing and judging will also be easy and fair.

[hahaha_leon]

<P>hey dude...</P>
<P>i think we should just get the act together and start the animation thingy <IMG src="smileys/smiley2.gif" border="0">.</P>
<P>i am sure alot of guys just waitin for it, just have to make sure that the rig is well tested and cool as IKjoe <IMG src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0">.</P>
<P>catch u amigos later</P>
<P>leon</P>
<P>&nbsp;</P>

[hyenaman]

Yo leon!!! if u are who i think u are...then u better get sachin in the game as well...<br>

[vfxmation]

hhhhhhhhmmmmmmm, nice idea, will give good exposure to the animators.

[nil3d]

<P>its a grt idea</P>
<P>lets do sum hindi dialogues in animation</P>
<P>&nbsp; if ne buddy gotta good 10second dialogue frm a hindi&nbsp; movi</P>
<P>then submit it with da name of the movie.</P>

[vishy123]

[hyenaman]

would love to....<br>
just that we need to come to a concensus on what the challenge is gonna be...<br>
Do we go with the basic anim thingie or the acting thingie...or both<br>
Yo admins!!!....Can we have a poll on that...<br>
Have a feeling this thread is gonna dry up....<img src="smileys/smiley19.gif" border="0"><br>

[vishy123]

one problem i see with this animation chalenge is with the uploadin of the videos... there aint no dedicated free video uploadin sites... most of them keep em only for a week or so.. so wot r we gona do abt dat... am nt sure abt this though but i havent found ne site where i can upload permanently for free...

[vishy123]

this thread needs a rocket booster called abhishek<IMG src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0">

<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbs p;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <br>

http://www.megaupload.com/&nbsp; <br>

[rdxace]

<P>1. should we not have a seperate thread to post our work and get it reviewed?</P>
<P>2. The 'bouncing ball' idea should pin-point on what kind of animation is required. what perspective or footage time. or do we just do it the way we feel best.</P>
<P>3. just like the modelling challenge,&nbsp;should we not&nbsp;make it official in the 'cgChallenge' thread?</P>

[andy_maxman]

<p>2. The 'bouncing ball' idea should pin-point on what kind of
animation is required. what perspective or footage time. or do we just
do it the way we feel best.</p>
<br>
<br>
- <span style="font-weight: bold;">Exercise 1:</span> animate a ball bouncing from one side of the screen to another<br>
<br>
- <span style="font-weight: bold;">animate only in side view</span>. perspective can come in once we clear the basic hurdles<br>
<br>
- no. of frames is not limited (you do get to go wild - but remember the<span style="font-weight: bold;"> K.I.S.S</span> formula - Keep.It.Simple.Stupid)<br>
<br>
- maya users can use this rig <b><a href="http://www.4shared.com/file/528973/652fd362/ball_v1.html" target="_blank">Bouncing Ball Rig</a> </b>( a download button is right in the bottom ). while max users can use a simple sphere and add in the s&amp;s deformers.<br>
<br>
- for <span style="font-weight: bold;">free uploads</span> - http://www.4shared.com/&nbsp;&nbsp; (thanks - Mukks )<br>
<br>
- use a<span style="font-weight: bold;"> frame counter script </span>for better and easier c&amp;c<br>
http://www.highend3d.com/maya/downloads/mel_scripts/animat ion/3781.html<br>
<br>
- as to where you need to post your assignments...the admins need to step in<br>
