In week eleven, you will focus on animating animals. Ron Husband will demonstrate how to animate complex poses in big cats and horses, using a 3D reference box to visualize complex poses in perspective. You will then learn to animate jumping and twisting animals, emphasizing principles such as the line of action, squash and stretch, and weight distribution to ensure engaging and dynamic animations.
