Initial Ideas

My initial ideas after som rough thumbs this week where to create a bowling sequence from the motion of a cricket player. However after the initial thumbnails work and moving onto the blending of the animations on motion builder however the throw that motion builder gives you is a very static 2 feet planted on the ground throw. As the bowler is running in this kind of sequence and feet will never be side by side when throwing the ball I've currently scrapped the idea and am currently onto a new 1.

Just to elaborate the project with my initial idea of the cricket scene the 3 motion builder animations I was going to use was 1.) the character thinking 2.) the character then running and 3.) the character bowling.....the 4th motion and my own animation then was going to be a folllows:

i.) for the normal attitude the bowler would have came to a stop with his eyes and upper body following where the batter hit the ball

ii.) for the different emotions I was going to go for the player celebrating as if he bowled the batter out. Then lastly the other emotion would be then character holding his head slowing down as he bowled a perfect ball for the batter as the batter hits a 6 pointer leading to the oppostion taking the lead and thus winning the game in say a world cup final match.
