Basically, my sack animation is going to consist of ninja traits!!... What's that you say? Well My sack character is going to be a ninja sack instructor that performs ninja moves in defending and attacking.. I haven't quit figured out if it's going to be a tutorial for aspiring ninja wannbe sacks, or an instruction as in how to be a ninja sack. It'll come to me in a few days or so.... Hopefully.

I decided to base my sack animation on a Ninja... The poses what i had done within Maya reminds me of a ninja, which is why my animation is going to be a ninja sack animation.

Animation and ideas.

This video really makes me think about how my character's emotion is actually being interpreted by viewers. The thing that really got me was the mass and the smooth movability that had been used within this video. The sack wasn't bulky or too skinny but at the right mass, that makes it look believable. I would like to adopt the same sense of method within my animation but at the same time, adding my own style within it. This video has given me the inspiration i need in order to make my sack character move in a way that is appealing to the eyes.
