I would like to know how to use the biker poses etc...because I see some movements that could be useful for other things too, but I have only previewde those actions and the character jumps from facing one way to facing another as he does the movement - kinda confusing. In a related issue here, I am trying like hell to get my character to benchpress some weight....I cannot get it!...the timing of the weight is too slow at its fastest for the pose of thrusting hips which wouldve been perfect, and just all the logistics of it is not working out, you have to do it inverted sideways with everything up against the wall because the character cannot be horizontal....it's very tough, I've been trying to 2 days straight and can't seem to come up with a workable solution...any ideas?? Thanks! - EEF

One word for you EEF - trickery. I would build the set around the standing character, making sure to rotate everything 90 degrees so that it looks like he's lying down (you can't rotate the character, but you can rotate all the objects). Use your animations, then rotate the whole picture 90 degrees the other way to achieve the effect. You can rotate the whole image by setting up a camera, creating a backdrop showing that camera's output, rotate the backdrop, then film that with another different camera - hope that makes sense

That's funny Ziggy that's exactly what I had to do...lol...it was tough though, and the hardest part was (As always I am having trouble w/animating objects!) trying to move an object in that position is even harder - The object was the weights you modelled for me...you'll see the result of it all in World Champion PowerLifting For Seniors - The BenchPress Lesson 2, you have a credit in the end too; which I uploaded today on Muvizu, youtube, twitter. The end result wasn't the greatest but I think it kinda worked. Also, as a note, I found out the problem as to why the font is so small when I made those films about weightlifting - I am using videopad and in the editor the preview it doesnt look as small in the frame as it is actually output in the animation....so now I know when I do the last of the series I have to make it bigger still. Another problem I'm having in Videopad now it seems like whenever I throw a still photo in there it flashes on the screen for like a microsecond in the output that is uploaded but not the one saved on my pc, it did that for Dyllyd image in Croozin Cuzzinz, and it did it at the end of my latest one uploaded World Champion PowerLifting For Seniors - The BenchPress Lesson 2.
