Animation:

Animating Power and Weight is a real-time demonstration of animating the first pass of a large scale creature swinging around a heavy weapon. We go through every step of the animation process, from breaking down the reference footage to the massaging of the keyframe timing in this first pass of the animation.

You will learn real world techniques as Jeff voices his thought process about finding key poses, advice on tackling animation problems, seeing weight shifts, recovering from common mistakes, as well as animating experiences from working on big budget film productions.

The entire process takes about 4 1/2 hours which is split into two parts. No step is skipped in the process.
