Beginners, post your Pivot animations here.

[Bricked]

Wait, what? He bounced when he hit the floor, just look. Or were you talking about your animation.

Edit: chase54676474575

The animation is really choppy, and stiff. Needs improvement on easing, stiffness, blood, muzzle flash, and basic movements. I also seriously doubt you make any of those sticks. Give credit if you didn't make them.

[chase5467]

if you looked it says its not finished yet its a work in progress

[Bricked]

I just did. But before you said "and heres one of my new animations" were you referring to mine or yours?

[chase5467]

i was reffering to mine

[Naglfar]

that was ok
i personaly hated that punch
but make the arm stay totally extended for at least 2 frames than show the arm slowly recoil
the feet were fine though
make sure there is a build up in the punch so it makes it seem powerful
it was super stiff so make the back move some
make the ground shake too if you want a super strong punch effect
dont use the default stick and ad feet to your sticks
Well Ok I'll try another one, still why do you hate that punch lol

[chase5467]

http://www.pivothost.org/upload/v2/Chase5467/new_random_fightebf8.gif well i made it kind of random at the end lol

[Naglfar]

That's...pretty sad....

[jojo4151]

same here im not done but here u go...it sucks probabbly..http://img363.imageshack.us/img363/8785/madnesscombatcp3.gif give me more ideas plzzzz..i got the stix from www.sebasabi.com tonz of other stuff. but this is my pivot...^_^

[Naglfar]

Well maybe you could make it more smooth? Hahah but I still don't get what are they doing?

[Bricked]

Needs to be a lot more smooth, and it's kind of confusing. What are they doing?

[Naglfar]

Hmmm not sure..maybe because of laziness...?

[Bricked]

I really don't know. Also, what's with the weird backgrounds and stuff? Half the time there's a background that moves, and then it's gone.

[Naglfar]

Lol yeah...well, practise makes perfect?

Btw i made a new punch, let's see how it is
http://img457.imageshack.us/img457/3876/secondpunchmn8.gif

ok ok here's another editted one, which one is better?

i like the fast one better

[Naglfar]

:P Ok thanks, I haven't made alot of animations yet tho

[dark turkey]

its pretty smooth aswell. good job.

[Naglfar]

Thanks Turkey :)

[Bricked]

The punch is okay. What's with the huge pause halfway through the punch?

Also, when he punches his arm should stick out straight instead of being bent downwards.

The arm returns to it's original position a bit fast, too.

[krock]

This is what happens to a guy who looks down other than up ps. rate it for me 1-10http://i207.photobucket.com/albums/bb276/LaneManx/Lookup.gif

[jojo4151]

Well maybe you could make it more smooth? Hahah but I still don't get what are they doing?
they are trying to leav that place..its because they are leaving that room its the best i did 4 that moment...

Thanks for the help brick'd, the pause was like...gaining power, you could say, try it in real life lol, still, i'll try to improve it next time

Oh, ok I get you :P
And sorry for the double spam

[krock]

This is what happens to a guy who looks down other than up ps. rate it for me 1-10http://i207.photobucket.com/albums/bb276/LaneManx/Lookup.gif Is anyone gonna rate this cuz i asked to rate from 1-10 and if I did tell me what I did wrong.

[Naglfar]

Is anyone gonna rate this cuz i asked to rate from 1-10 and if I did tell me what I did wrong.
I'm not a good rater but if I was going to rate this I'm going to rate it 2...sorry for that because the blood effects weren't too good, and it was a bit choppy and un smooth.
I hope your next work would be much better, have patience, spend more time :)

[krock]

Thanks finally a credict who doesn't call me a bitch,whore,slut, or faggot

[Naglfar]

0.0...They are evil lol

[krock]

I've been workin on this I call it Fingers Rule http://i207.photobucket.com/albums/bb276/LaneManx/Fingersrule.gif And I need a critic to rate this.

[Bricked]

Quit double posting. It's a bad habit.

There is an edit button.

The animation is kind of strange. The figure that "got thrown off of the screen" returned, and the blood appeared for one frame. Very choppy and stiff, and without a floor. Work on basic movements and keeping them from being choppy or stiff.

http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/9452/runtesthz8.gif

I know I posted this before, but I kinda want a bit more feedback.

How is it? What can be improved?

[krock]

Yeah and can someone tell me how mine is? it's the last animation on page 533. P.S It might confuse people how he falls Brick so you can work on diffrent ways to cause pain to other sticks =)

[Bricked]

I'm pretty sure I added comments for your animation on the post above.

[Naglfar]

You need to move every joint of the stickman or else it's too stiff, aiiiight? ;)

[saphire-flame]

work on everythin plz

did you get that punch from porwerfuseos full power punch tut?

[Naglfar]

Yep powerfuse takes full credit lol thanks for the tip
I'm first trying to master out that punch then create my own :) (if i can...?)

[stagantflame]

lol....................

[Naglfar]

Lol.....what? Still i might just stick to this punch because i think it's cool

[Alifighter]

off topic: cryztal what day in may did u join?

[Naglfar]

Hmm...like May 30th or so, why ask?

[Alifighter]

I'm first trying to master out that punch then create my own :) (if i can...?)

If you're gonna say his name, say it right, 'power fuse0'
Also, your punch SUCKED. your problem is the stiffness in his back. when you have the arm jointed, use 3 frames to make it flex out and hit the guy, when it hits the guy, make the attacker bend his back and his arm follows the guys body for about 5 frames. Then he takes normal position. Work on it.

[stagantflame]

thats not ino...
its diadora

[Alifighter]

correct!!! deidara.

[stagantflame]

somtin new got me high begginer from some inters

[stagantflame]

[Arch-Angel]

dude, change your personal message (the thing under your name), and don't post,somtin new got me high begginer from some inters
because its not true, a lot of inters said med beginner. If you would pay attention and get msn and add me like I told you, then i wouldn't be bitching

[shadow stalker222]

Rate this please http://i207.photobucket.com/albums/bb276/LaneManx/whoops.gif Credits to Droidz.org

I would say...1... Work on the stiffness and physics (that guy got superhuman flexibility) and easing...start from small movements, bits to pieces, ok?

[Naglfar]

Hey pplz i made another attempt for the punch, i know it sucks real bad but i worked a bit on the back this time...
http://img175.imageshack.us/img175/6516/fourthpunchjq4.gif
plz give me tips in improvement

[saphire-flame]

thats actually not that bad physics were off tho and easying sucks..and way to stiff but ohk for the bloody beginner section

[Naglfar]

That's the problem O.O I don't know how to make stuff unstiff

[2-D]

You have to jack it off.

[Naglfar]

What do you mean I have to jack it off O.O...

[saphire-flame]

Really your a bit lazy about your animation(i think) O.O that "main character" of yours was flying around the place, and...You need to improve the physics and try to make it smooth
(work on everything! please)

[jacman]

sorry dragora. Your right the whole animation is gay

Though seriously, i'm sorry

EDIT: By the way, anyone know a tutorial for a beam thingy majig?

[Arch-Angel]

yeah. Here it is.

-skip the effects for now and concentrate on movements. Such as easing. Look in the tutorials section

[Naglfar]

At least not me, try going on the "pivot tutorial" section and search for one

[beauwii]

hey man

[Arch-Angel]

dude, I prolly have more respect than you, and my avatar shows that I respect BS and AA. This thread isn't worthy for my animations. So you Stfu. People need to have a good look at their animations and ask themselves, "Is this a good animation?".

[kinto]

Hey Flair, stick people don't have genders you dumbass. They can be a boy or girl. THEY CAN EVEN BE A TRANSVESTITE LIKE YOU!!!

[stagantflame]

yeah but tbs aka dragora has been a little bit pushy lately if you ask me

my brother was here for the weekend and has been pissing me off, i dont normally come to the beginners section and im going to camp in 2 weeks. That's gonna suck. So I try to make the best of my time and i get pissed easily

Hey Flair, stick people don't have genders you dumbass. They can be a boy or girl. THEY CAN EVEN BE A TRANSVESTITE LIKE YOU!!!

ok I know this is choppy cuse im trying to get better at walking and punching.Tell me what i can inprove on.^_^http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/bb112/jojo4151/mortalcombat.gif

[Bricked]

Everything.

It's very choppy, and very stiff. Also, the background is useless, and adds nothing to the animation.

Work on basic movements and making them smooth.

[blackheart]

idk how to make a animation *sad*

[blackheart]

can anybody tell me

[blackheart]

anybody there i want to know

[Bricked]

Read tutorials, take advice, and stop triple posting.

Don't spam like that.

I'd look at the tutorials section for Pivot. Look for it in this forum.

Edit: Or, you can just google "Pivot tutorials".

Really Choppy And Bad Physics This Is My One I Conjured Up In 15 Minutes
http://img526.imageshack.us/img526/3209/snipershotze3.gif

[.:shadow_man:.]

Me and elbow ore ust me ore ust him?:confused:

sry that i ask about this silly thing but i ust nead to know lol....

[Arch-Angel]

I really doubt that any of you have seen my animations =|
I can own all of you in 15 frames. lol.

cryztal- I know you mean for the punch to bring pain unto him, but you need effects to conjur a punch thatwill bring him off of his feet. so dopn't work on that now. But if you want to do a strong punch, You could make the attacker have a quick jolt (from top point of the arm, 2 frames, then impact). And make the victim take one step back while he recouperates. If you didn't understand that. I'll make you an example sometime today. And you ease at the beginning of every movement, and the end of every movement. Until you reach High beginner, then it gets more complicated.

Elbows- stfu noob. You didn't mastert walking or running. Look at that and tell me. Is that how you walk or run? If so, you need help. When looking at a tutorial with frame by frame examples, try to copy the movements exactly. and don't rush it. The most important part is. If you're taking a step forward, your front foot ALWAYS stays in the same spot on the onion skin, It's easier to understand if you have a figure type with feet.

Shadow man- Work on easing and proper movements. Read some tutorials and practice. You people are lucky im posting here because Im extremely busy, so it aint gonna happen much. You definantly need top work on what I told Elbows about with the foot placement.

mack2k7- it was alright, but a city scape is how should I put this.... it's made for a backround. People enlarge them when they want to animate a stk. figure in a city. But they're perpose is for backrounds, and it sucks to watch a 4 centimeter tall stk. man getting shot by a slow ass bullet and falling 2 inches. It's not worth the pain and suffering.

[snakebyte]

the perfect list of things to do for real beginners:
1) work on choppiness
2) easing
3) walking
4) running
5) fighting
and he most important one of all... don't be discouraged by people flaming you when you are just a beginner

[Stormwalker]

this is how proper runing looks http://www.pivothost.org/upload/v2/stormwalker/aokrun9sp4.gif

[Arch-Angel]

1- that isn't proper running
2- give creds for it
3- you get flamed because of what Eclipse said (stormwalkers signiture)
4- you also get flamed for being a noob

you just have to learn to divide yourself from other people, get your own attitude and personality, and don't act like a noob, and people will like you more.
Don't make threads every animation you make, and post here, and people will like you more. But someone will always hate you

[Stormwalker]

what are you talking about 1st what dont you liek about the run and i havent made a thread with an animation for like a month now .. you starting to be a fag not how u used to be!

oh btw eclipse didnt say it about me

[krock]

Dragora There is a lot of people calling you a fag maybe you should stop rating peoples animations in the Beginner's Section and let Crystal do it. You can critict the threads with animations in them.

[great_pwnage]

Lol im very new but.... i have a broken back,neck one XD its at the end
http://i16.tinypic.com/4xwn60k.gif
my very 3rd so im not sure if its good BTW i havent posted this anywhere

[Arch-Angel]

work on the basics.

Storm walker- im aware of both. I havnt flammed you yet.
Krock- You're being a gay little noob. Im almost Intermediate, he's low beginner. If he says one of your animations is med beginner, you'll be posting threads saying, "Im a med beginner" and shit, people will get pissed at you and order will be hurt more than it already is in the pivot section. If you cannot take constructive criticism, gtfo the forums because you're never going to fit here. But if you can take C&C, then you'll be fine.

[kinto]

WOAA WOAA WOAA STOP YOUR NEWBY LITTLE SELF THERE KINTO I've probly had more action in an hour then you will ever have in you life. And Dragora that is no excuse and no you dont have more "respect" than me.

EDIT: TBS is Dragora???????????

Action with your computer keyboard you mean?

[Stormwalker]

Dragora what exactly you mean by aware of both?

[krock]

Hey i'm not mad at you Dragura for criticing me I mean how mean your are being to other people stupid can't you read what I write.

[Arch-Angel]

if you're offended by what I say, be offended, i dont give a damn.
Im not flamming or being mean, it's C&C, you havn't seen how much of a prick I can be

[Stormwalker]

Dragora read my last post

[madness993]

this is how proper runing looks http://www.pivothost.org/upload/v2/stormwalker/aokrun9sp4.gif

That was really good btw

[Stormwalker]

well tnx i made an example to show ppl how a exceptable runing looks like so they would know what should they try to make

[Arch-Angel]

the making of threads and what eclipse said. and the run is just patternali...zized? lol. It's a pattern of 1. 2. 3....1. 2. 3. I like 1. 2. 3. 2.... 1. 2. 3. 2.

[Stormwalker]

but if u were aware why did u mentioned em? and well the run why isnt it proper it is its just the matter of style cuz u like one and i like another eh? :D and well i think it would be okay if anyone of these would make such runs .. soo its cool!

[snakebyte]

one problem you cant give constructive criticism

[Arch-Angel]

stop being a noob.

storm walker- Yeah, that's a nice run, it needs work in some areas, but I just dislike the style. I still feel you copied an [IMG*] from a tutorial though

[chase5467]

http://www.pivothost.org/upload/v2/Chase5467/bea,stwo2.gif i also wanted this to have some good blood effects

[Arch-Angel]

the blood needs to break into particles and fall towards the ground at your level. It's still low beginner, but you're getting there. Try to ditch the effects though. Work on your walk a little.

you need to work on
movement
easing
physics

and you'll be med beginner

[Stormwalker]

dragora nope self made i just learned this style and well i like it :D lol but im glad we talked abot it not flamed each other :D

never use 2 emoticons in 1 post, it makes you a noob.
You're not really a noob, snakebyte is WAYYYYYYYYYY more of a noob.

[chase5467]

hey dragora thanks and ok i will make the blood effects better but any tips on how to make my small beam better i liked it better then the big one and also everyone is like work on easing work on easing what is it and can i will work on he physics to

[Stormwalker]

woa this awsome cant wait to see what comes out! great idea about the giant snake or whatever :D

[Arch-Angel]

well. I find it easier to have a beam start off thin and going from the end of a stk. mans hands all the way off the other side of the screen instead of growing to the other side. then edit it and increase it's thickness a bit for like 3 frames and have it slim back down and fade as it gets thinner

storm walker- look at the time line of the frames if you didn't

[chase5467]

wow hey when thats finished will you email it to me please i will tell you where to email it in private

[Arch-Angel]

1-it's pivot 3
2-its part of me and pf0's collab, so ill have to edit his part out
3- it wont be done for a while

and exc

[Stormwalker]

i did but i hope its not gonna be 2 fast ( the movement of the snake) but maybe it is good

[Arch-Angel]

he comes out fast, but its noticible. I eased him into a stop as he devours the guy. It's animated well and easily

[Stormwalker]

yeah well thats what i tought about but well as long as its eased in the end its good :D lol hmm ill need to get back to making some anims i dunno my rank

[chase5467]

[Arch-Angel]

its not really a dragon. But if you have pivot 3, ill send you my 'Dragora' stks.
and Snakebyte, stop being retarded, k? It's obvious he had a hard day at work and he has to come home to a bitch for a wife, so he has to take his anger out on somethin right?

[chase5467]

[chase5467]

http://www.pivothost.org/upload/v2/Chase5467/street_fight_gifd06o.gif ok special credz to dragora for the dragon thing that comes out of the sewer and its a little fast i know please rate it

[dark turkey]

Cool anim chase. You may want to make him fall a bit slower wen he gets shot.

[diablox]

Im not done with it yet. the real reason is i really want to know when i can begin moving to regular forums instead of begginers. (no offence)

so if you can rate me on how i can accomplish that and tell me how close i am (maybe something out of 100) that would be great :)

Here it is:
http://i8.tinypic.com/66ll7wi.gif

[Arch-Angel]

i would say 1.5/10, honestly, do you even try?

[stagantflame]

give him some c&c dragora
and i give it a 30 out of 100
work on basics before you do this type of thing

[Arch-Angel]

you both need to work on the basics.
Stagnant, you're only med beginner

[stagantflame]

when the thread frekin died i had 14 votes as high and 13 as med
you said to put my rank as which ever one has the most when it dies and i did
*sigh*
he will never learn will he
jk
i respect you alot dragora but sometimes
i wish you were tbs again cause somtimes as dragora
ur a hothead
and good luck on making inter!

[Arch-Angel]

dude, I take ranks at what they say on DD. My High Beginner animation got A LOT of votes here. And on DD, High beginner ended at around 13. While med beginner was 7. Idk, i havn't checked the threads. So I'm allowed to call you med beginner, because I don't see you at being that good

and i just looked at every poll you made until you were low Beginner. And nope, they ALL say med beginner to me

[shugo391]

dragora...if your so good dude then y do u post so much in here...stormwalker ur proper running was sick...its like 10 pgs back

[Arch-Angel]

If no one good posted here and tried to help you, whats the point of you beginners posting here? I thought so. Just don't piss me off cuz im ****ing busy.
And Im not posting my animations here, I make threads

[saphire-flame]

i dont make threads:) and i dont suck:) every1 here is a beginner whoeevr post in the beginner section usually has a far way 2 go until they can post on the main form because most high begginners post on the main form. so yeh

[Bricked]

Print screen! Quick, saphire-flame! You have 666 posts!

[saphire-flame]

lol haha lil kreepy:P yay tho haha

[shadow stalker222]

he has to come home to a bitch for a wife
Swack dude:)
Thats funny.....

[Naglfar]

O.O...I guess I'll stop trying to make blood then, cuz i dunno how to make them in pivot..

[Naglfar]

Since i'm that bad at the punching thingi, I made a simple jump (and i know it sucks also, like the speed when he goes up and falls).
http://img360.imageshack.us/img360/5193/badjumpdu6.gif
Please give me tips in improving and stuff
*sorry for double posting and the bad grammar*

[Stormwalker]

well it wayy too slow on the jump physics are off dont make the kick stay in the air make it star kneeling hes leg and dont let the back and the arms stiff in mid air if ill have time il make you a example!

EDIT: well i made a OK example the arm in the end is for trailed movements http://www.pivothost.org/upload/v2/stormwalker/Example7z39.gif

EDIT2: here is a bit better / faster example http://www.pivothost.org/upload/v2/stormwalker/Example_2o6sc.gif

[Naglfar]

Ermmm...Ok even though one arm looked funny for trail, thanks

[Stormwalker]

yeh i know :D but well its still trail movement :P

[Naglfar]

True...true...but my main purpose was to jump in that animation, so that kick was totally random so...

[Naglfar]

Right i have an easing project here...don't worry about the other stuff, just tell me how i did on easing, ok?
http://img78.imageshack.us/img78/3117/easegh6.gif

[smores]

Heres my latest pivot. :cool:

I felt like using something more then just stick figures, so I did some exploring. I found a downloadable cat figure and controller/detonator figure. However, im at school and cant download them. So instead, i just tried to redraw them.

Feel free to give me feedback on the figures and the animation overall.


http://img502.imageshack.us/img502/5881/catsarefunqr8.gif

[Stormwalker]

well those stilcount as stik figures but anyways its low beg stuff you know what im talking about choppy stiff etc. cryztal make better examples that shows more of the easing but this was ok!

[Naglfar]

Hey, smores, I suggest you to start from the basics, like walking and running and stuff like that, because your animations now are way too stiff, and unsmooth, so...it's only an advice..

[smores]

OK ill go check out some tutorials and stuff. Thanks for the "an advice." :p

[Naglfar]

Lol alrighty what ever suits you, keep going, you'll be a good animator someday

[cloma grisol]

Hey, hows this? its my first animation, and, i was looking for some pointers. Maybe it's a little too big...
http://www.pivothost.org/upload/v2/Cloma Grisol/fightkgmi.gif

[Naglfar]

It's pretty good for your first animation but it seems a bit choppy and stiff, and unsmooth, perhaps you can work on that?

[cloma grisol]

thnx! I really like pivot. animates a whole lot better than power point! -.-

[Naglfar]

Powerpoint...slideshows?! Anyways, Pivot might look easy, but it's actually pretty hard to use and master, so better work hard and you'll be a pro someday :)

[cloma grisol]

yes...slideshows. that was my original animation program.-.- anyway, I tried for smoother on this next one. I dont know if the sword part is smooth, but the othe guys hand falling off looks good to me...
http://www.pivothost.org/upload/v2/Cloma Grisol/sigavnf.gif

[Naglfar]

Hmm...Let me see :) Do you know what's easing? If i have time i'll make you an example(that's really bad) about easing, over all the hand popping thing was ok lol, but still think about what would you react like if one segment of your arm is chopped off


Ok I got one example, i'm very lazy here, sorry, it's something like this |-|--|---|----|---|--|-| You move the hand a little in the first frame, a bit more on the second, then it goes wider and wider, then to a point, you slow it down.
http://img527.imageshack.us/img527/7713/blablt7.gif
Here's another bad example...sorry...it's very choppy and it's bad swords work, but i'm just trying to give you an idea of what it might look like

How is this sprint?

http://i16.tinypic.com/52lecyq.gif

Thx to Droidz for sticks and thx to Capn for running tut :)

Rate me!

[Naglfar]

It's...erm...GOOD, but could you slow the movements down abit lol

[Stormwalker]

it would look better fast . its too slow i think it would be good if it would have proper speed

[Naglfar]

it would look better fast . its too slow i think it would be good if it would have proper speed

Are you serious? I think that run is a bit too fast!

[cloma grisol]

Oh. so is that how they make it so smooth? thanx :)

[Naglfar]

Oh. so is that how they make it so smooth? thanx :)

Yup, no problem, hope you can use ease on your next work, i'm looking forward to it!

[Arch-Angel]

no you ****tards. Speed of movements isn't what easing is. It's the acceleration of something to get to its top speed. Like a car going from 0-50mph.

[Naglfar]

no you ****tards. Speed of movements isn't what easing is. It's the acceleration of something to get to its top speed. Like a car going from 0-50mph.

Dragora, I wasn't talking about that run, please refer to the front page...

[bowstick]

well tell me what you think ................ i know the walking sucks but i was mainly focusing on the blood and easing.
http//img508.imageshack.us/my.php?image=puchwithbloodandkickteseb7.gif

[Arch-Angel]

Running isn't 1 strong pace, you need easing on every part of the running, his running sucked

and post an [IMG*] code dammit

[stagantflame]

http://www.pivothost.org/upload/v2/Cloma Grisol/brawlvs6k.gif

[Arch-Angel]

i c no easing, only bad movements and hopes at effex

[cloma grisol]

My first walk test using my character cloma grisol.( yes, those things on his neck are arms, and no, he doesn't use them if he can help it)
http://www.pivothost.org/upload/v2/Cloma Grisol/cloma_walk_testwhpo.gif
yes, I know it sucks. but i'm finnaly using pivot 3!

[saphire-flame]

pivot 3 sucks.. use pivot 2.2.5 and the walking is weird doesnt look like it crosses.. i ant a big fan of walking cause i suck at it.. use easing.. and his extra arms look weird

[kinto]

Pivot 3 Rockz My World And You Can Change Bitmap Images During The Animation Unlike Piv.2!

[saphire-flame]

you dont need bitmap images.. everything in pivot should be made in pivot

[rufty86]

how do i post the animations i have

[saphire-flame]

you must get 20 post first then go to www.filecram.com or pivothost.org or imageshack.us

Dragora again with the style deference a stick inst too thick its matter of style how he like it porly animated yes but don talk bout such things as thickness comon the stick could have been diferend wich needs to be thick! well ayways agin its about style

[Arch-Angel]

the stk. is too thich for it's size, a 10-13 line thickness would be good

[Naglfar]

i thought you couldn't untill you got 20 posts.

You don't need 20 posts to post your animation :)

Rate me.

[kreative1]

low beginner and try not to put the animation into movie maker or the sort, tends to drop the quality of the animation. you've got alot of stiff movements. good general ideas, but work on your movements.
