For today, I made some more progress on my 3D animation work where I have worked a mood change with the Binky character. This was practice for the Unit 1 hand in which requires a mood change exercise.

During this exercise, I think that I learnt more about timing and anticipation. I tried to time the actions so that the impact of what was happening was more effective. In the animation, the character walks up to a ball with a very happy expression and then the ball rolls away, causing the characters mood to change. Timing was crucial with this for more impact in showing how the character was feeling.

In reflection, this was very fun to do and I think that I learnt even more about animating a character with this. I was able to give the character emotion and a realistic reaction to the events occurring in the animation. To improve, I think that I will create a different mood change animation with a more interesting reaction to something.
