Disassembled... - More ragdoll torture...

07:54 pm - More ragdoll torture...

Cinematography is everything.

I took the same simple ragdoll physics test animation and played around with more dynamic (and interesting) camera work. Besides the cameras, the only other change to the animation was the color of the ragdoll. I made him blue to get better contrast.

These new views also help to demonstrate that the ball that launches the ragdoll is actual my first (and only) attempt at a chrome material.

The first video I set the camera on the side of the track and made it follow the ragdoll as he flung forward towards death...





The next is an attempt at having the camera follow him, from behind, for the entire animation (though, I need to work on my technique. The camera is shakey at times and may cause slight naseau)...
