save me... HELP...

hi everybuddy.

well guys, hope all is well on ur end. m doing my new test on side step. vl post when it is ready to show up.

recently, i was chatting with chetan when he was planning for his new animation test. while talking to him, i realized that i have a serious prob. i hardly think of using any reference videos for studying or using for my animations. i hardly plan my shot. i dont even thumbnail my animations just bcoz i dont know how the pencil works. watever i do, i just go with my mind n calculate the weight shifts n all the basics up there. pose my char directly in 3D. i cn even count on my tips how many times i hv seen videos for reference. i have so many articles from some great great artists about using videos. even they also suggest it for studying.. bt i jst nvr think of it. i always realize that i shud study n plan my shots as much as i can, bt i simply dont. suggest me how to overcome this trouble.... its just irritating me hard... n m worried about it.

i think it helps a lot...it gives you idea about your basic poses..overall time etc...you can take it to 3d and then modify it till you get what you want...acting it out in front of mirror is one more way...but video recording yourself will help you in having a ready reference for as long as you wish...experts do the same way...look at this...
