Walk cycles made easy. After effects makes creating a walk cycle more of a science than an art. Anybody can create a great looking walk cycle using these steps.
Once you master the basics of a walk cycle you can begin to develop the eye for the art of a walk cycle. Also, do you actually read these descriptions? if you do comment "holla" below. Thanks!
Like the music? I use soundstripe for all my music. It's affordable, and they have a really great library. You can view all the music at this link. If you like what you hear, consider trying them out! soundstripe.grsm.io/Keyframet...

Got lost in the arm part... should I keyframe position for arm swing or just use FK?
@TheKeyframeAcademy
@TheKeyframeAcademy 2 года назад
FK if you're using something like DUIK or Limber. If you're using rubberhose or Deekay tool, you can keyframe the position of the wrist to move back and forth in an Arcing motion. Or something you can parent the wrist to the shoulder and then animate the rotation of the shoulder. Or, you can just create a shape layer for the upper arm, a shape layer for the lower part of the arm. Parent the lower part of the arm to the upper part of the arm, and then animate the rotation of the upper and lower like you would with FK.

@squid9601
@squid9601 2 года назад
This is a really really great tutorial but after coming back to it 1000 times, I noticed something that is off. When he starts animating the body going up and down, it is actually supposed to be the opposite of what he does. The body moves down first and then reaches the peak height in the middle of the cycle, then back down. Still amazing tutorial and will continue to come back to it
@squid9601
@squid9601 2 года назад
And one more thing to add to this comment - the feet position movement CANNOT be bezier otherwise good luck getting the feet to anchor to the ground when the character is moving across
@TheKeyframeAcademy
@TheKeyframeAcademy 2 года назад
What I demonstrated in this video is correct. I think you may be misunderstanding my directions, and I don't blame you, this video is really fast paced. I need to do an update and slow it down. What you're describing though, is what I am doing. Thats why we start with the 3 "down" keyframes and then add 2 "up" keyframes in the middle of the down keyframes. A full "cycle" is essentially two steps. One step with the right leg, and one with left. What you're describing is only "half" of the cycle. "Down -> up ->Down"...But a full cycle is "Down -> up ->Down->up ->Down" So the body should bob up and down twice for each step taken. Then I offset the body keyframes 1-2 frames because the lowest point of the body is actually supposed to happen slightly after the foot taking the step makes contact with the ground. Walking is essentially catching yourself from falling while moving forward, so when your foot initially hits the ground the momentum of the body falling doesn't immediately get redirected back up but is delayed a bit. Hope that makes sense.
@TheKeyframeAcademy
@TheKeyframeAcademy 2 года назад
Also in regards to moving a character, you're right. It is extremely hard to create a looped walk cycle like this and animated it move horizontal and getting the feet to plant. But I have a totally different method for that.

if you're using Limber, you have create an FK controller, and parent the hand to that instead. Or I think there is a IK match FK button.

Why prepare the position of the body with a "LoopIn()"? I only know the looping method with "LoopOut()". Where/how does this "come in handy" later? THX!
@TheKeyframeAcademy
@TheKeyframeAcademy 4 года назад
I'm using the loopin expression because I am shifting the body animation down 1-2 frames to offset it from the legs. If I were to use the loopout expression, that resulting "loop" wouldn't account from the two frames in the beginning. It's the same reason I use the loopin for the second leg as well, because I am shifting the entire animation to start halfway through my workspace. If I were to use the loopout, I'd have to shift my keyframes in the other direction, so that the middle of my leg animation would be on frame 1...I don't like doing that though because then if I want to change any keyframes in that first half of the animation, i can't because those keyframes are off the timeline.

@amparofontanet720
@amparofontanet720 4 года назад
Nicolas Trottier Hi! This was very helpful. Im still a bit confused about the loopin. Do you loopin all keyframed layers or only those that you offset to start a few frames after the beginning of the animation? I would think that the layers that are not offset would have to be loopOut, no? Thank you!!!!
@TheKeyframeAcademy
@TheKeyframeAcademy 4 года назад
Amparo Fontanet basically if you’re shifting your animations forward in time (from the first frame) you want to use loopin. If you’re shifting your key frames backward in time, ( which means you wouldnt be able to see the first keyframe because it would be shifted off the the timeline) you want you use loopout. Maybe I’ll make a video to explain this better.

Why not just loop a precomp of one cycle instead of applying loops to several layers? 🤔
@TheKeyframeAcademy
@TheKeyframeAcademy 4 года назад
I do both actually. But inside the precomp, instead of going through the work of animating both the front and back legs, or front or back arms, I just animate one, and copy it, and then offset the keyframes, and then apply loopIn or Out to the offset keyframes. If not I have to shift around keyframes or completely redo everything on the second limb. So looping in this case is less work IMO.
