Beginners, post your Pivot animations here.

Do I need 20 post to post a image link?

yes. just put the link with a space in

My first walk

[Automaton]

thats pretty good for a first. its a little stiff - move the back a bit more maybe? and dont bend the leg so much when he lifts it up. take a look at how you walk, and try and make him do it like that. but i muct say its better than my first try (way better). mine was about 2 frames lol.

anyway, just made this. i thought the arm flop thing at the end was needed, but when i played it back it just looks like hes having a spazz! i decided to leave it in anyways:

[pivot on fire]

my first is alright wish i had 20 posts...

[ellwilllanimator]

Thanks and umm yeah sometimes i make mimic on myself to understand how to move it.

Im a beginner so dont judge hard meh

yeah thats the best way to do it, though with some moves it might be too hard (back flip and kick lol). and im just trying to help. telling you points you can improve on so next time when you make an anim, you can look back and check youve not done what people said was wrong.

what about me



as for gunned stick, read this tutorial and skip to the punching tutorial
http://www.darkdemon.org/viewtopic.php?f=36&t=22662

and do a punching animation with one stickfigure first

also, walking in place when punching is not a good idea

Looks alright. The third punch looked a bit weak, and it went through the neck of the person getting punched. I like the shaking motion of the screen, and how, on the first punch, the target slid back a little. I can't help but notice the legs of the target weren't moving at all though.

if you practice a little, you can leave, but like i said, you can stay even if youre high beginner (hopefully like moi :D), rather than leave. i doubt many would care whether you stayed or left. in here youre only really being helped by people of the same ability as you. so it up to you lad.

gunned stick.


the hell was that ? jk.. it looks realistick for the flash but when you shoot with a gun, the momentom will push your hand and body to the back, and that takes 6 frames to do. Do that and it wont be choppy, I'll give you the order for each frame:

take one frame and move slightly right after the shot, then 2nd frame make the body move slightly and the hands move back faster
3rd frame: make the body move in normal speed and make the arms move slowly to a stop.
4th frame: stop every thingand make it slightllllllyyyy move to the front , just a little bit.

5th to move forword, move the body and arms

6 th stop every thing.

Yesterdays animation,god it was like 12:00 p.m.

[Automaton]

ok, the first ball needed more of a bounce and shouldnt have rolled that much at the end, and the stick was incredibly stiff. the second bounce with the red ball was ok, but i think the man was too stiff in that. he would probably be shoved back a bit, and wen the ball reaches it's peak he would probably slide down underneath it.

if you want i can edit the gif to show you what it should look like? (but i might phail myself)

I knew it wuz terrible.
lulz.
if you want I can give you the piv. file

[Automaton]

again. i think youhave a lot of potential but your anims ar amazingly stiff. remember to move each dot every frame, even if its only a little. just think, when you punch, your arms arent the only things that move. your back and legs bend, your head leans forward etc etc.

[edit]
and you can if you want, but i might fail myself :P

[Elblem]

Gunned stick: work on easing and stiffness, and try practicing physics.

Move every joint in the frame, and make it more realistic. Try doing the movements yourself.

[Gunned.Stick.]

These ^ 2 make me feel I won't wanna animate again :(

The other funnyhttp://img132.imageshack.us/img132/3807/stickib8.gif

[Darc]

Dude... stiffness? That's NOTHING to be ashamed about, there's not a single beginner that isn't stiff, okay? I'm low intermediate, and even I'm a little stiff, its REALLY hard to get rid of, and most of the time will go away naturally, as simple as it sounds to not be stiff, it's not easy, it's hard to move every joint per frame and still make it not look spastic or fidgety.

TIPS! (woohoo...)

-start off by doing walking and running tests, I saw your running, it wasn't too good, you didn't move the back at all and it's a little choppy

-give credit for other people's stickfigures if you didn't make them, and I know you were inspired by someone's animation with the beam animation, it was like Jbrian or something.

-if you don't know what easing is, tell me, because I cba to explain it to you if you already know it.

[Gunned.Stick.]

1.yeah i touhgt that too.
2.I made the sticks myself(Except of Wu It wuz made by Jon,Thank him so much)
3.Isn't easing like moving the joints soflty and slowly?

[Automaton]

easing is moving it lie this: |_|__|____|________|____|__|_| so on 1st frame, move 1 pixel, 2ndmove 2, 3rd move 4 etc until it reaches the middle of the move, then the opposite to finish it off. its kinda hard to explain. and i could have sworn that stick was from droidz?

[Gunned.Stick.]

Only wu is from droidz.
Then if they accepted my donation,ok.
But droidz h8 me they always decline my stks.

[serpent 71]

Well, here are two.

http://i265.photobucket.com/albums/ii220/Serpent71/kickmove.gif

[Gunned.Stick.]

That was kinda choppy,but the 2nd kick was good

[power fuse0]

easing is moving it lie this: |_|__|____|________|____|__|_| so on 1st frame, move 1 pixel, 2ndmove 2, 3rd move 4 etc until it reaches the middle of the move, then the opposite to finish it off. its kinda hard to explain. and i could have sworn that stick was from droidz?

actually
depending on the physics you actually slow down quicker than you speed up.
So when you're stopping a movement you ease heavyer than when you start the move.

[Upps]

off topic but, how do I make my avatar move ?

I used to know that it has to do with the size but it still doesn't work.

[stickmaycry]

=] I finaly got the hang of animating..This is my favourite and I did it till I got a head ache...Very bad one.Its 404 frames and 25kb

I'm also thinking that I should make a series of my own and post it to one of my threads.

=] Sorry for the part before the back flip the one when he flips and lands on him hard yeah that one was choppy and sloppy.How do I make it smoother??

Gimmie some tips!

[Automaton]

im sorry but i have to say this - work on EVERYTHING - choppyness smoothness, easing, physics etc etc. if that anim was really like real life, itd b like saying when you kick, your leg snaps up and your body does nothing else. im sorry if that came across too harsh.

I tried to get the rid of stiffness I think I failed.(Thanks TraceurX9 for the tutorial.)http://img258.imageshack.us/img258/7048/runpn0.gif

[Upps]

you did partially actually, that's a good improvemnt, just make sure you take time in animating and try to not waste time in animating too XD.

Now don't do ground shakes cause you only do it when a serious injury is hapenning or violent reactions\ explosins happens.
It's good to see you move the arms but make them match the movement of the legs.

Did it worked?

[Automaton]

erm yeah its pretty smooth. but some advice: for a run like that, dont use a ground shake, everythings a little too stiff, and his back needs to be bent a little more. try that, and il see if it needs any more easing etc. also, what would you rank me by that last one? this one:

okay, but the arms are one of the main problems, methinks. they dont move realistically. also, slow it down a bit. nice splits though lol, those were really smooth. NOW DO THAT FOR THE REST!:Bricked:

[die321]

ok ok ok holay sheet, i've been gone for months, and i finally decided to animate . . . i forgot whether i was inter or not but i'm sure i was able to post outta beginners, but besides the point i'm gawna see wut you guys think . . . HAI FWIENDS :)
http://img99.imageshack.us/img99/9505/ropefallak1.gif (http://imageshack.us)
- i can't figure out wtf is wrong with it being so slow, never used to use pivot 2.5 (which is all i have now) but in the .piv it turns out fine

[SRC]

I don't like how when the rope is about to hit the ground it kinda curls up again... Pretty good though. I think ur pretty close to being high beginner, keep practicing!

Hows this?

ok ive just figured out what bugs me about your runs. when he pushes off, it seems like his leg slides back and goes up. his foot that he pushes off should never be further back than where it was at on the floor, you get me? and when he lands, make him lean forwards a little. also, make his front leg bend a LITTLE more when hes about to push off (not a lot more though)
http://img242.imageshack.us/img242/5804/decentrungs4.gif

I know it's just a run, but what level would you say I am.
well if everything else is that smooth etc, probably high beginner. post a couple more and il see if theyre all up to that standard. that run is way better than mine. ive got a real problem with running.

oh and new combo i made :D :

Sorry about the size...
I won't say that's borderline intermediate yet. It's more likely a low beginner..Sorry.
However, we don't really care about ranks now.
You need alot of practice, for example..Easing.
It's when you do a movement like this frame by frame:
|-|--|---|----|---|--|-|
And most of all, physics..Balls don't bounce like that in real life, right? ;)
And you can make the picture smaller when saving the .gif...
Just make it 1/2 on the options.
I'd recommend you show the picture..Some people are lazy...Like me...

cute figures dude... as much as i'd tell you to leave this newbie section, being a newb a pivot still others will tell you to keep your stuff here. Keep it up. I love the epic shaking high velocity feel

[Upps]

flac, you need to stay here,

your animations need spacing and easing, plus your movements are random.

still, nice figures you got their, but for the special effects, don't use those at this level.

[Babapadaple]

Flac, nice stick figures!
I cant say what level your at because I dont even know what my level is... but i would give them a 7/10

well i hate the first stick, no offence, hes too fat so you cant see his limbs moving properly. i dont think you have a problem with smoothness though. if anything its stiffness. you just need to think what would move when i punch? etc. the answer would be everything. you need to move every joint in eery frame. the easing was ok, just add a bit more of it. i like your effects, and youre way more adventurous with your anims than i was. all i used to do was punches etc.

[Babapadaple]

:heh: Im not a big fan of the first stick either...

I know where he got them..www.droidz.org its in the chase pack..And my best animation is my sig =] made it my self.. I donno my rank but tell me weather I should be outta here or not..

Not quite. The stick man wiggles too much. Will be much better by putting a floor. Needs easing, in some parts he might break his bone.

[terrain]

just a few pivits, i keep doing 2 or 3 pivots, then not pivoting for a month or 2 then coming back to it :Sweating:

Almost medium beginner.
Save your .piv into .gif
Uncheck merge
Set frame delay to 6~7 for normal frame rate.
Shrink the frames by 1/2

Read my whole post.
"I'm sure you could do better"
What that animation shows is low beginner material.
A person flying through and bumping another guy.
1 second animations..I can't judge.
Perhaps you are a medium beginner, I don't know.
But not from that animation.

[Automaton]

i agree. judgingfrom that animation, it is low beginner. maybeif you lengthen it, and make them fight a little or somethng i could say different.

and wy is there a ground shake when nothing is even touching the ground? if the people were in the middle or the screen and they were 'flying' for longer it might look like the camera shaking, but not on that.

That IS easing, do you want to .piv file? It's in the bin though, I'll make another.
Just ask anyone.
It's obvious that you don't know what EASING is.
You have much more to learn...
So please stay low and listen.
Jrock's easing anims were good too.
Learn from it.
Now.
If you don't think so, I challenge you to a Pivot war, and let them choose.

[Automaton]

yeah that WAS easing, and if you cant take advice from someone, then dont come on here. now for the help: easing is like this: |_|__|____|________|____|__|_|
thats where you move it 1 pixel in the first frame, 2 in the second, 4 in third, 8 in 4th, or around about that. theres also different techniques like heavy spacing etc.

[hawkeye]

so many good animations on here! i hope mine can compare....

[Upps]

ok every one, the best thing to do is calm down, practice by just moving only one part of a body, understand how it moves, then learn easing then do small anims, like walking or just punching and kicking, dont do long and coplicated yet, cause you'll waste your I deas and are not improving that much.




one more thing, do it for fun.

[xninja]

alrite well maybe i got screwed over since i didnt look at that advice when i made a better version of mi most recent anim... but here it is aniway. please be a rockem sockem robot like prince of PIMPS was and rate mine.. http://img140.imageshack.us/my.php?image=portalpwndrevampedem3.gif

[Upps]

that was ok, low beg, for now just work on how the stick will walk and land cause moving stiff objects is easy to do.

again I'm gonna repeat this.

[Upps]

http://img140.imageshack.us/img140/9941/punchvq9.gif

ok just first, as I said do a punch with just movingone arm, once you master it. you :do this

http://img241.imageshack.us/img241/2978/upperbodypunchoj7.gif

try it with the upper body, then

http://img140.imageshack.us/img140/4476/punchfullwf1.gif

full body,


one rule, every thing starts from slow to fast, and ends from fast to slow, < easing

every part that you wanna move and is static, must start off slow and end slow once you do that and master the technique you can move on to more advanced anims.

[A3RO 360]

http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj3/A3RO360/Preview1.gif


What you think?

[reimar420]

mine at my sig well................. my are not smooth

[Automaton]

ye we know yours are at the sig. to everone whos posted over the last 3 pages except for people like ultimate stickman:

do exactly what ultimate stickman told you to do. all your anims were choppy, stiff, no easing, no physics and was unrealistic. so read some tuts on first smoothness and stiffness, then easing, then physics, then individual movements. once youve done all that start off with somethng like a punch, then do a kick, then a walk, then a run, then a running kik combo, etc etc. for a good tutorial, see this: http://www.darkdemon.org/viewtopic.php?f=36&t=22662

note: read one movement through, like the walk, then practice it until you perfect it and can do it with your eyes closed (not literally obviously).

whn youre learning a move like a wave, youll probably go from something like this:

http://img137.imageshack.us/img137/903/rubbishwaveko5.gif

to this:

http://img293.imageshack.us/img293/1149/okwavemy2.gif

to this:

http://img509.imageshack.us/img509/3381/goodwaveon6.gif

and dont settle for the first or second one thinking youve perfected it. in fact, dont even settle for the third, as that only took 30 seconds. practice until it looks really realistic, then move on. that is all.

WOO LONG POST!!

[Automaton]

[Automaton]

A3RO 360:
i would if i could see an anim of yours. post one of your anims, and maybe ill give some crit.

and Zsdery - shut up, that wasnt helpful and to be honest youre not much better than most of them. you need to work on stiffness and easing. and please dont use double framing like that. did you read baha's tutorial?

[edit]
sorry A3RO i must have missed yours. pretty much you got some good ideas, and are very adventurous, but before you do long animations with all effects in, you gota perfect stuff like running and walking. geez didnt anyone read my last post?! i think i should make a separate thread just to say that and sticky it. read through my last post, please! it took me 20 minutes to make it so i think i deserve some of you to take notice. and A3RO please dont pm people asking them to comment your anims. i might leave the beginners section just because of all the idiots who dont even try round here.

[Zsdery]

WTF!!! I didn't use double framing!!!11!!!!!111!!!!!

[Automaton]

yeah i see now. i was on opera and its choppeh on there. anyways, everything else i said was true, now learn! if everythings still the same tomorrow, im leaving here.

Wise dude moment FTW!!

[Stormwalker]

jrockpunk

1) Your not that important here, so no ones really keeping you here.
2) Don't use rust as a excuse , you cant be rusty if you haven't learned anything properly , you cant forget anything.
3) Also you need to learn how to apply easing too.

And to learn how to apply easing you don't just have to know how is it done , you have to put effort in it , practice and have patience.
And don't hold your selves down with short anims , make longer difficult one , just because you don't succeed at it doesn't mean you don't get better , or even get worse, you get experience.

[Zsdery]

...k but i didn't use rustyness as an excuse i was always this good...er bad...

[Automaton]

i think he was talking to me when i said i was rusteh. and i am to a little extent, as i havent animated in a couple of weeks at least. and if you were talking to me, i know i have to do my easing better, but i think i was ok at it before. i just need to practice again.

[edit]
and by here i meant this section, not the whole forum, and im sorry if it came out arrogant or anything, its just i was getting pissed off at helping people, them not listening, posting another one back straight away with the same problems, then PMing me asking me to C&C teir anim and not babble on in general. so you know, im in a BLAH mood anyway.

[edit 2]
and stormwalker, i see what you mean about actually using easing properly in my anims, and about not making short ones. the thing is i run out of good ideas, and when i try i usually get stuck, and end up getting fed up and dumping it. i dont seem to be enjoying animating as much any more anyway :(

[Stormwalker]

If you were good ( which is something i don't remember ) You cant loose that much skill , inters+ can be rusty cuz they have learned things to a respectable level , they have something to forget.

[Automaton]

thats why i said to a little extent. i mean, look at this punch i made before:

http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh199/jrockpunk1/punch.gif

compared to now:

http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh199/jrockpunk1/mehpunch.gif

anyway, whatever if im rusty im rusty, if im not im not. that wasnt the whole point in this conversation anyway i hope.

[Gunned.Stick.]

Both pics are good.
In fact you're obviously better than me and other people at easing and other stuff.
Yeah I've only used pivot for about two months.(Downloaded at March,7 2008)

http://i180.photobucket.com/albums/x42/moonie8610/beam.gif

[Upps]

G-stick

make the whole body move, like move the back - back and forthand the head should move since it's attatched to the back.

bored guy, when someone shoots a beam so powerful, he should atleast back up a bit to gain balance or move to puch against the power, your is stiff, the cause there is only one step then boom, ....sig? just animate somthin about your name.

Work on the simple stuff like walking, running, jumping, easing, smoothness, basic punches and kicks, etc, before you try to do something like a combo.

How did it?

[Gunned.Stick.]

I know but im upset becuse people just keep saying YOU SUCK, or You are such a n00b and whatnot. I need some advice from the pros!

I didn't...:heh:

[Automaton]

@Anarchey: thanks :D i dont think ill make it any longer though, i think ill just leave it as a short humour one. i might make another long one though. im still trying for high beginner. how long do you think ive got to go?

@xldo: yeah it isnt a place to chat, and post a couple of anims and ill crit them. and i highly doubt whether people said all bad stuff about them. if they did, theyre probably just n00bs themselves wanting to big themselves up. you should give some C&C to someone no matter how bador good they are.

Well there is a reason for you being called a noob , the reason is you being a noob , you want advices from the Pros? Stop acting like noob , don't take a piss at others , you'll just sound insanely stupid and noobish , if you wont act dumb , people wont say you suck , they will give CC.

What do you guys think? :D

[MrCheesy]

It's not bad, but work on stiffness...
You have alot of stiffness there.
Try not to add effects until you have mastered simple movments. On the other hand that sword trail was pretty good. But master movments first.
Try adding a bit more easing.

[pivot on fire]

heres my latest anim rate and enjoy

ok, G-stick, try to keep feet in place instead of making him look like he's skating.

[Gunned.Stick.]

Now?http://img255.imageshack.us/img255/5011/punch4wn5.gif

You can call me Guns by the way...

[stickmaycry]

http://img238.imageshack.us/img238/7319/kickbuttsticksv3.gif

Worked on easingness and I know I messed up the kick..Just don't know how to make it fluid.Need tips?C&C!

Credz to Power Fuse0 for everything on my animation

[Automaton]

ok Guns:

make your feet stay in the same place please! look at his left foot, it slides back then forwards. now look at his right one, it slides forward then back. if you want him to lift his back leg up, leave his front foot in exactly the same position and lift his back leg up. if you want him to do a walking punch, leave the front foot in exactly the same position but move the back one to the front like a walk.

take a look at this:

http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh199/jrockpunk1/punch.gif

notice how his back foot stays in exactly the same position. once you can do that just try to apply more easing and youll be there.

stickmaycry:

I quite like that one. the only bad thing about it is the jerkyness and the easing. edit the frames to make it not as jerky and smoother, then maybe apply more easing? youre nearly there.

[Gunned.Stick.]

Allright,sorry for delaying to reply.

... So I Probs Abit Rusty!!!

UGH! The next no-- , erm beginner that says this , I will shoot him. Seriously tho. The animation was quite stiff , and should be eased more , also make it faster (No I don't mean the frame rate) i mean use less frames , ease at the beginning and the end. I didn't like the run TBH. But keep practicing.

[slashx]

how do you put your animations here?

[rawfellawlzorz]

yeah so ummm...
am i a rookie yet?
oh if it doesn't move then how do i fix it?

I made a few tests.

[Automaton]

maybe a couple more ground shakes? like when the ball smashed the floor and the man landed after a backflip. anyways how the hell do you get that good?! im tired of being med-high beg :(

[power fuse0]

I posted the . piv for it in my thread, Download it and Check it out.

Remember, you animate for fun, not for the ranks.
..Unless ranks make you happy of course. =)
Practice makes perfect! :D

[Automaton]

well yeah. i find it fun sometimes, but sometimes after ive finished an anim i think "how i just wish that turned out better and i moved up a rank :p" (yes they make me feel speshul). and i lik practicing, except for whel it goes horribly wrong - about 50% of the time.

Well, yes.
However, let's do an experiment.
Use alot of effort and time, and create an animation.
After that, look at the animations you thought that were good before.
If it didn't look as well as before, it means that you have improved, because you simply know you can do better!
Right?
=)

[Automaton]

oh yeah i get you. still i seem to be getting more and more frustrated at animating lately. for instance, take this i just made:

http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh199/jrockpunk1/defaultbasher.gif

i was quite pleased with it except i cant fix the jerkyness at the end, and it annoyed me. meh. what do you think of it anyways?

this is for school so i can see it: h ttp:// i25.tinypic.com/2edw8r7.gif

[Upps]

stickmay cry your improving really fast, and you got rid of the minor stiffness

good job,

[Gunned.Stick.]

Don't worry Jrockpunk1.
I always tought you were a high beg/low inter.
Then I always tought I was a high beg.
GREAT MISTAKE,right?

I can't animate now.
Pivot has an error(Error Warnings appear at all the screen)
When I open a saved pivot.
So yeah...I can't.
