If you've ever struggled to create fast appealing overlap / follow through without offsetting - this animation will help you fix that. And it will build upon all the skills you've developed from the Day 1 vertical ball challenge. ➡️ Download the Maya Ball Tail rig I use here for free: ⏰ Timecodes ⏰ 0:00 - Intro 0:43 - 2d planning the ball 4:39 - planning weight 11:13 - 2d planning the tail 16:54 - tail flow as a wave 20:13 - overlap w/ shapes 24:25 - 3D Ball animating 30:58 - ball rotation 33:43 - squash and stretch 35:57 - maintaining momentum 37:58 - auto tangent 39:07 - adding weight 40:37 - retiming 44:00 - sketching the 3d tail guide 47:54 - animating the 3d tail 01:01:14 - adding empty time to start 01:02:40 - overlap workflow hack 📒 Show Notes 📒 ⚡️Question – Did you discover something new to improve your overlap workflow or workflow in general? 👇LMK in the comments below. 🎨💪Unlock Pro Mode for free by visiting: Animation Software 3D / 2D / Stop Motion: ➜ Blender - ➜ Maya Indie - ➜ Digi cel Flipbook - ➜ Krita - ➜TV Paint - ➜Dragonframe - Subscribe to Rusty Animator: FOLLOW Rusty Animator on Social Media ➜ ➜ Website ➜ Gear and Music Used: Gear and Music Used for This Video: Cam - Logitech Brio: Mic - Hyper X Quadcast Music: Piano & Sax by Joakim Karud Creative Commons — Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported— CC BY-SA 3.0 Free Download / Stream: Music promoted by Audio Library
