In Week 9, we started working on our body mechanics shot. However, I encountered some issues with the reference I initially chose. I misunderstood the requirement and thought that the restriction only applied to weapons or props, but the tutor clarified that the shot should also avoid any hand contact or interaction. As a result, the reference I selected was not suitable, and I will need to adjust or change it in the next stage.
At the moment, the animation is still in the blocking stage, so the movement does not feel very smooth yet. There are several areas that will need further refinement. Some poses need to be pushed more to make the action clearer and more dynamic, and the arm swings also need to be smoother and more fluid. In the next step, I plan to continue refining the timing, poses, and overall motion to improve the quality of the body mechanics.
