PosterDigital-Tutors – Animation Retargeting Techniques in Maya

Intermediate | 1h 15m | 474 MB | Project Files 80 MB | Required Software: Autodesk Maya 2012

In this set of Maya tutorials you will learn a variety of techniques for retargeting animation to save time building animation assets. We’ll start by learning how Maya’s Trax Editor can be used to retarget animation. We’ll then take another approach and utilize MEL to accomplish the same thing. Finally, we’ll work with Maya’s intuitive Human IK toolset to retarget from a performance-captured animation to a custom skeleton. We’ll also cover techniques for optimizing and correcting animation after it has been remapped. By the end of this set of tutorials, you will be familiar with several tools you have at your disposal for re-purposing animation, to, ultimately, save production time.

Ken Fountain – Animating a Basic Acting Shot

Beginner | 3h 18m | 1.98 GB | Project Files n/a | Required Software: Autodesk Maya

In this 3-hour video lecture/demo, follow DreamWorks Animator Ken Fountain’s process for analyzing and animating a simple, clear and appealing acting performance.
With a presentation geared toward the more advanced animator looking to create a great test shot for their demo reel, Ken let’s you look over his shoulder as he chooses audio, examines the character’s “subtext,” plans his staging, breaks down video reference, works out timing and “attitude” through thumbnailing, uses detailed blocking to define clear acting beats, controls and shapes the scene’s “phrasing,” adds texture to enhance the energy, sculpts the lipsync, and brings a shot to a polished final.
