Research: WALKING

Seen as I am going to animate the figure walking i felt that researching into the different positions was a must. I borrowed a friend to walk towards me whilst i used a camera to take continuous shots. By doing so i aimed to discover a pattern which i could use to produce the frames needed to portray a realistic walking figure.

I used overlays to draw around the basic shape, gathering information of where the arms were positioned and the legs. I began to notice how the body also moves up and down slightly whilst walking, as well as the tilting of the body as the weight shifts from one side of the body to the other.
