Week 2: Let's take a walk...

Hey peeps,

This weeks tutorials focused on how to make a character walk in flash. I learnt that there are certain stages in a walk cycle that make a character look more realistic.

These are:

Contact
Down
Passing
Up

I made a stick figure that went through these motions, and sure enough it looked like he was walking. In the second tutorial the following day, we made the character 'Kaiser' walk across the screen. It was a different approach, in that it was an actual character rather than just a stick figure, which gave it some depth.

Really helpful second week that will aid in our final projects because we now have a basic idea of how to create a walking character in flash.
