This is an animation study I did using the Wolfdog rig
The first animation was mostly a mechanical exercise with the wolf transitioning from a trot to a walk and back to a trot. It's a subtle change of speed and gait, but a valuable study. Another aspect was to have the character travel in an arc (just adding more complexity to the shot).
The second animation was exploring some character traits of a dog. I had a lot of fun with this one and I felt like I managed to capture some of the subtle head positions and body poses which add appeal and believability.
