Big Dog Animation

For this animation, we had to make use of the pendulum effect too so that it looks smoother when it moves. Paying attention to the weight and anticipation is really important in this exercise because it really shows whether we understand those principles or not because Big Dog is falling and moving, trying to regain its balance. So what i did was make sure the body only rotates when two legs moving in the same direction hit the ground to stabilize itself! That's when the weight will shift! And i moved two legs at one time to synchronize them. Something funny was, my Big Dog somehow turned out to move like a lady. It led me to thinking, is the animator a girl or guy possible to tell from just watching the animation?
