In character animation, you might have gotten the impression that everything should be keyed at the same time. That is OK, but there is a chance that it might look a little stiff. The reason being, try turning with your hip. Now what you may of notice by paying extra attention..Your Abs and Chest don't move at the exact time, so why should characters? If you are going ARGH by this point, never fear..The Power of Timeline comes to the rescue.:) This tutorial is meant for folks with moderate experience with animation.

Objective:
Using Poser 4 and a reference picture, be able to successfully recreate the pose on a figure.

Approx. Time: 45 min.

Level: Beginner

The goal of this tutorial is not just to teach you how to move a model around, but to explain some of the basic theories of how to approach this type of project.

This tutorial uses standard Poser tools and settings. We have chosen to use nude models so you can better understand the physics of movement. Clothing hinders this process and makes it hard to select body segments.

Imagine that you want to cover a surface with a repeating pattern - wallpaper, say, or a tiled floor. In many 3D applications, including Poser 5 and 6, you can set textures to be tiled automatically, so you need only a small texture which is repeated by the renderer. This obviously saves memory, but it's also easier to adjust the scale of things like brickwork so that they look right.

Many Poser users are intimidated by the magnets - they "don't get it" - they play with them for a bit, perhaps, but it's all too complicated and they give up. However, intensive research by teams of talented scientists toiling away in our secret underground laboratory has revealed some valuable information which has made me into a magnet user.

As the title says, this is the very barest introduction to the cloth room imaginable. It won't tell you about many things, in fact it won't tell you about most things. Its intention is to get you into the cloth room, get you started, and hopefully get you experimenting for yourself once you've overcome the first hurdles.

...the default for Poser’s render engine is set to render the Texture Shaded display mode. So what do you do if you want to render one of the other display modes (Wireframe, Cartoon, etc.)? That’s what this little mini-tutorial is going to cover.

How many times have you seen a really super image and although you couldn't quite put your finger on it, there was just something that wasn't quite right about it? The answer probably had to do with the pose...
