Flat Animation Test
🕑 Added 2023-06-06 08:09:10 +0000 UTCA little test animation I made before working on the video from the start of the year to test out my new method of animating flat girls. Left is the old method and right is the new one.
The animation itself is a free mocap from Mixamo and it hasn't been edited. Of course in a proper animation I would make a custom movement to account for the flatness and flopiness of the character.

Thanks! It definetly still needs some tweaking and experimenting before it looks as good as I hope it can.

Do you mean like a full body inflation, or turning someone into an inflatable toy? I think Ive done both at some point.

Nice. I like to think that a cross between firm and floppy would probably look the best. (especially with the hair and clothes moving as a posed to being stuck in place). (Although how floppy a character is while flattened is probably determined by, amping other things, how used they are to it)

I love both methods for the flattened characters they look great. P.S. have you ever tried inflation for your characters like those inflatables items people get for themselves hmm?
