Worlds Greatest DJ continued...

Here are 2 animation test i put together to figure out what it would take to to animate a DJ. I counted how many frames it took to do one full scratch motion while paying attention to his head and bobbing it at the same time. Also, i had to figure out how to time his "record" hand movement and play it against his crossfader hand. The test with the stickfas character was done a few times cause his fingers kept falling off, or id forget to bob his head mid-animation but once i had all the information in place and an x-sheet drawn out, i was able to do this final test with all the parts working together.


This second test was done out of excitement for having a metal turntable to use in the shot. This is the turntable that Joe put together and i made a quick second one out of pink foam just to get to the testing. I didnt do much planning for this test, just kind of jumped in just to see what would happen. I did use the x-sheet timing from the other test so i could at least get the scratching right. Everything else was dictated by the audio that i got from the 13 year old DJ, Dj powertripp.
