Umpire animations wanted - will pay.

You can but, not to discourage you, the one you've made is not currently of a standard I would consider using.

Just tell me what thing you need me to improve?
eg-Shirt, hat, beard, etc?

 

[barmyarmy]

Ultimately I'm not a graphics expert. I can't really point you towards what you need to do to improve it apart from to say that it doesn't look all that natural. I'm not totally keen on the face either.

I have my holidays going on these days and I can give it a try

Here's the umpire stance...now comes the difficult part...the animation.....I think I might do a no ball decision first up as it involves minimum movement....what do think of this Colin?

EDIT : here's the first animation

the no ball animation

I like your umpire; it's a good model.
What package did you use?

As a suggestion for all those who are intersted please search for joint animation in after effects. It is the most easy and perfect method to animate any character close to human feel.

In that technique you need to make your character (2D) to have joints like human i.e ball joint, rotating joint etc (I am nill in biology).

Adobe Photoshop CS5

Do you have Image Ready?

 

[shrenik]

No I don't.

Image ready is a closed product of Adobe. Now they have all Animation features in Photoshop.

I'll try to find one if I'll able to remember the link.

 

[barmyarmy]

Yeah, we figured that out via VM. He has CS5 and I have CS2.

Would you be willing to use recorded GIFs?

Basically if someone was to videotape themselves doing the signals and turn it into a GIF image. We could make it a woman in beach clothes haha, it has potential :P
