Subject: well, i got no skills to animate, but I'll like to do a walk...


softcris ( ) posted Mon, 23 May 2005 at 5:55 AM · edited Thu, 13 February 2025 at 7:38 AM

yes, i got already done the walk STEPHANIE in the texture i wanted and so...but now she should turn and slowing lay down and her body should turn into an object (a backspime already have the object in jpg.file)that is fixed in the background. So is a kind of Flash file in the end of the story..the thing is that I'm a dummy into those 2 operations: animation plus Flash. Please, fellows how do I do that? Using Poser Pro Pack (my favorite since I still not very friendly to Poser 6) Thanks for any help to solve that problem.

Basically a storyboard is a series of drawings that describe the action you are going to perform. They are often used on film to represent how the sequences will look like (more specifically to set framings and camera positions)...

... however storyboards for animated sequences not only describe camera positions but also poses and all that. When I ask you if you already have a storyboard for your walk I ask if you have something like the image above. However if you have no skills to animate then a walk will be a little steep for your first "trial". You should do something simpler like animated props and stuff like that.

My very first animation was an airplane taking off. I was done in Bryce, but It is a very good for someone who is starting to learn. Make a runway by stretching a black box. Find some simple Poser trees and buildings and place them so the camera has something in the background. Remember that if the camera doesn't see it then you are just adding to the rendering time. Not only should the airplane move and turn but the camera too. If you do this in Poser open the animation controls and edit in the airplanes roll. Have fun. Dale

Hi Dale, thanks! Now: I got all done so to say but the frame she stops and turn itself into the 'spine'(the object) is that I'm having problems... she walk like your draw above, is ok! Done! then she stops or not but she would turn herself into something; 'spine'(the object)! That is the trick pont that I could not figure out how to.....mostly because how should be transformation? look the idea in the pic. she will be the spine in the next frame...

Look at stupid trick 1 on the other thread. Have her travel on the z axis into the spine object and past. If you are using Poser move the ground plane so she has something to hide behind once she is past the spine object. I would have her color also change to the white of the spine the moment she touches the spine. If you hide the spine behind the rotated ground plane and move it out at the same time that she goes behind it will appear that she turned into the spine. The only other way I can think of is to use a morphing program. Dale
