    Tip: You can draw those division scales on elastic bands and stretch them to get quick 'eased' motion of any length.

      @Martin-bx1et 2 ปีที่แล้ว +17

      @@thatssoweirdhonest6179 at around 7:08 TheCrafsMan is drawing graduations on a rule so that he can direct a pointer on the rig to control the speed and acceleration. Typically, 'easing' the movement might involve gradually expanding the space between the marks and then bunching them up again to reverse the effect. Instead of creating the marks from scratch for each movement, marks on an elastic band can be stretched between different points to suit a particular move. (You will still need to create different scales to match the overall number of frames but this should cut out a lot of repetition.)

    I'm looking at how your figures have that natural bounce to their step. Very pro. I'd drop the beep volume 50% at the end for those of us on headphones going for the full Crafs'man experience...it's a little sharp on the membrane...

    • @TheCrafsMan
      @TheCrafsMan  2 ปีที่แล้ว +17

      Thank you for the feedback on the beep! Going by my levels/meter it didn't seem like it would be too loud (and I check with my headphones) but I can see where it could be a touch loud.
      For one thing, some people may watch my videos at a higher volume than I do, which could make those beeps really BEEP. I'll lower it by a good several decibels. :)

It also makes me so happy when I see people helping you out too because you totally deserve it! It's always appreciated that when a piece of kit is likely to be out of people's budget that you give suggestions on how to come up with DIY solutions.
