My pitcher
-
17 Jul 2008Hey guys here is my pitcher...What I am trying to do is get some good animation pieces for a demo reel. Those of you who have put together a demo reel if you could tell me what pieces you have I would appreciate it. I have a guy picking up a box, a lip sync, the pitcher and Im going to put together a scene with a batter and some outfielders. Is this enough to submit as a demo reel? Again any comment or suggestions are welcome.
Thx -

Good start again. The spacing right now is very linear and could be sped up quite a bit through the throw. Remember to ease in and out where it's needed. You almost never want linear spacing, so plot your arcs and make sure things are moving naturally. Be sure to go through and make sure each and every pose is balanced. In the case of the throw he is leaning forward so he doesn't need to be balanced as he's falling forward, but before that he does.
As far a demo reel, in my opinion these shots aren't ready yet. They are all off to a good start but you need to spend a lot more time on them. How long are you spending on each of these shots? -

A demo reel... hmmm... I dont think you have enough work for a demo reel, one thing that I noticed is that all you have at the moment is animation... when the employer is looking at your demo reel they need to know you can do alot of things like modeling, texturing, particle systems maybe, e.c.t.
Here's a good link for demo reels:
