Now I added that microphone to his right wrist and carefully closed his fingers around it… and proceeded to move his right arm so as to bring the mic closer to his mouth when he was singing. I had done it all with the model’s right arm lower, like his left arm… so he was dancing with both hands near his hips… copy/paste… copy/paste… how’s it looking? … Pretty good… a few more tweaks and… “Yes!”… I had created a unit that I could copy/paste for the whole 4000-whatever frames. I tried it… and “nope”… had to modify the action. I worked to get my basic motion to be one cycle of the gyrations that I could copy and paste to create the long dance routine. As I mentioned in my “beginners” tutorial, I used myself as the “model” and I attempted to bounce and jive that dance, myself, much to the amusement of my two cats ! I tried to feel the twists and turns, the arm swings… upper-body, lower body, shoulders, arms… I tried to feel the timing: how many seconds, how many beats… what might work in MMD’s 30 frames per second. It’s not the greatest… but my model looks very alive! … He is bouncing and twisting at a rate that is compatible with those background dancers. Mahlazer’s motion is wonderful as he moves from one “step” into another… as if he created this “Feel the Sound” motion as an assembly of other motions he had created, earlier… but, taken as a whole, it works very well… the motion is bright and fun to watch. With all of that motion, the actual tempo of the music is not so critical… we just need to see the dancers moving at a riot-like pace that goes well with the music. I had already noticed that Mahlazer’s motion seemed to work with ANY fast dance song… it always seems to simply drop-into the music!Īs I loaded that motion onto my background dancers, I noticed how complicated the motion actually is… Mahlazer has a registered frame every four or five frames! … and maybe an adjustment in BETWEEN those frames. What helped me to see the plan was that I needed to have background dancers… and for them, I chose to use Mahlazer’s “Feel the Sound” motion file.
#Mmd motion dances how to
When putting together that slow-dance ballad motion, I was most concerned with getting the tempo correct… seeing that my models were rocking in time to the beat of the music.Īs I put together my “Trick Bag” animation, I needed more “speed!” and I had to learn how to DO it. Making more complicated MMD dance motions… How can I make more-complicated MMD dance motions? Does it take a long time to make your own MMD dance motions? How can I learn to make complicated MMD dance motions? LAST TIME… I wrote about creating a gentle “ballad” motion for MMD… Easy…
