Billy Run Cycle and Parkour Landing

Here I have created a run cycle for my character Billy the Cat to use in my animation. This will appear in the title card or credits with a black background to make the colour stand out. I think this is a successful run cycle that has good energy to match the character.
I have also created a rotorscope of a parkour style landing to implement within my animation. This is a rough based to be drawn over but it demonstrates the movement and rough proportion sizes.

Walk Cycles

Here I have created two short walk cycles, a 2D one and a 3D one. The 3D one is using a puppet to create the walk cycle. I initially intended to use my own puppet, however the legs were not the same length and did not bend very well, making it too difficult to create a walk cycle with. Instead me and Petra shared her puppet to create this walk cycle which I feel was very successful.



Here I have my 2D walk cycle of a person walking. I feel that the movement is smooth and it works as a walk cycle. However, I would have liked to put more time into creating a face for the character, rather then having a simple head.
