Motion Capture Tired Walk Cycle

Mocap walk cycle after cleanup

For this project I cleaned up a walk cycle animation that was done in motion capture. The walk cycle is based on someone who is tired.

For the beginning process, I had fix the character’s posture. The character was standing more up right and did not look tired. I also fixed the arms swinging back and forth.

After fixing the posture, I tried to implement the 12 principles of animation by giving him more of a bounce. Looking back, I should have had the arms dangled more as well as animate the fingers.
