Week of character performance posing / keyframing workshops

Sometime the things you try in teaching turn out to be way more fun for everyone than you had hoped. I have just had a great week of character performance / posing / keyframing workshops with the 25fps@staffs students.

Started off with using the Mathilda rig from Leon Li-Aun Sooi and Xiong Lin for a twenty-five expression challenge based on the well loved on-line exercise...

Just a small selection of the exercise results
...and followed this with a recreation of classic paintings using a multitude of posed rigs.

Very rewarding to see how everyone fully engaged with the tasks and the strength of the resulting work. Plus they really enjoyed it. Cant ask for more than that. Well done everyone!
