man walking



i added in a man behind the bar, i wanted to make it look like the man was walking towards two people that were added on the side of the bar. for this, i used the footsteps, which can be found on the animation section of the toolbar to the right. this is a really simple tool to use. i simply clicked on the biped, then the foot print tool, i then selected the appropriate settings (including the amount of prints). i then positioned in the correct place,rotated them and scaled them. i done a trial before adding it to the scene as seen above. it was during this time that i found the problem with the eve lopes of the man previously made. so this was something that i had to change.
i found the footsteps tool effective, i did find it quite limiting. in that the key frames could not be moved, and as a result, the man had to walk at the beginning. it also wasn't possible to move the limbs when the footsteps was used.
