Tip for cleaning up arcs

Posted by aleeCO on November 16, 2011 in Tid Bits |

I need to note this. (mostly for class 2 and 1, those working with Ballie)

when cleaning up arcs: a trick I found useful is to watch the edge of the control curve. If you frame by frame it, hop to each key frame (with “.” and “,”), you can better see pops in the animation by just watching tips of the corners. For example, Ballie’s main body control curve is a triangle…if you see one of the corners of the triangle pop up in a direction, you can easily see the axis that the pop is on.

You also have the arc tracker tool — my note is good for really small or specific spots.
