- 🐾 Mastering the "Z" Curve in Quadruped Walk Cycles
When animating a quadruped walk cycle, or any walk cycle for that matter, one crucial aspect that should never be overlooked is the proper animation of the "Z" curve. This often-overlooked step is vital for creating fluid and natural-looking animations. Unfortunately, many beginner animators neglect this critical element, resulting in stiff and unnatural animations. Aspiring animators should be aware that animation supervisors frequently look for a strong foundation in basic principles like the "Z" curve when evaluating work.
In this video, I’ll share valuable tips and tricks to help you properly animate the "Z" curve in your quadruped walk cycle animations. By the end of this tutorial, you'll have a deeper understanding of how to incorporate this technique into your work, ensuring your animations are fluid, realistic, and sure to impress.
