Thanks for the post Victor, you wouldn't believe how hard it is to find quality descriptions on how to go through blocking when you are forced to self-teach yourself everything, and have limited resources. Gives me a lot of direction to go with for when I take a crack at a scene again.

Wow, what an awesome post. It's amazing to get insight from professionals about their workflow.

Good stuff Victor! Watching your previous lectures involving splines helped me a lot in refining/evolving my workflow. Although it seemed intimidating when I first started animating on the computer, it soon became a necessary ally when I ran into issues. I avoided it as long as I could, haha.
