Exercise #6-3D Pendulum Swing

[Professor Sidler]

Animate the 3D pendulum using two different methods:

• Pose to Pose
• Straight ahead (Layered)
• Playblast both methods and put them in the same Syncsketch (Label which one is Pose to Pose and which one is Straight Ahead)

Ex: Emily Sidler
Explain which method you prefer and why

I prefer pose to pose because I do not have an imagination and so pose to pose makes it easier to figure out how I want it to move.

I prefer straight ahead because the movement is more fluid compared to the stiffness of pose to pose.

I prefer Pose to Pose, as it helps me organize my thoughts and give me an idea of how the animation needs to flow. Straight Ahead is not bad, I can see myself using it for simpler movements, but I still find myself finding Pose to Pose easier to do.

I favor both these methods, they both have their pros and cons but I work well with both methods.

I prefer Pose to Pose. Because it helps me to get to know what to do for in-between frames and to organize flow of my animation. Straight Ahead is also useful for me thought I prefer the method I can change it easily as Pose to Pose can edit my keyframe easier than Straight Ahead.

I would pick pose to pose in most cases, it allows me to plan it out better instead of trying to follow it frame by frame to ensure accuracy.

I actually prefer the straight ahead method for this assignment, I feel like I can visualize and understand it better than when I tried pose to pose.

I like both methods, pose to pose is great for doing smooth movements and is easier for my head to wrap around the keyframes. While Straight Ahead results in more random movements, and is harder for me to do, but ends up looking better.

I pick both because they have their own special thing about them. It's easy to work with but they do have their own downfall to them.

I prefer both it depends on what we are doing
