UPDATE:
Hey, you may or may not have seen this original post, but the site is now tentatively live:http://www.hellobullet.com
There are quite a few animations still to be done on the site, but quite a few are done:

on the people section, each character has a little mouse over loop.

The ideaology section (don't blame me for content!) was interesting as i exported seperate loops for each character and just changed trigger frames for timing with dialogue (as it has/will probably change so timing a whole animation wasn't possible)

there are some other little bits to discover... Going on holiday to NY tomorrow... when we get back I'll have to carry on with animating all of the beliefs.

p.s. the characters were all created by my partner Ana Aceves.

I'm not too happy with the news readers reaction anim, and the group animation is maybe a abit quick... feedback appreciated as this is all still a WIP.

:)

Hey dudes,
Not posted in a while, got new computer and been really busy yadda yadda :) Just working on animations for a new website and did this holding page

Comments appreciated, although it is just a holding page so i didnt want to spend too long (did this in about 4-5 hours including drawing)

Used fazeks amazing meshinstance script to have a copy of the paper fold on top and below the arms, i'm quite happy with the way the paper schlops onto the wall :)

Also, inspired by the recent revival of interest in the bone locking tool by Vern, so locked the right hand onto the wall... worked really well when lifteing the body rig for reaches i thought, save a lot of hassle! I did have to 'pop' the bones back to the right place a couple of times, but once i did that they stayed as should be.

The site will have a LOT of animation, something different on every page - so i'll update this thread with progress.

Enjoy.

Ah, but I missed some of your animation because it loads... well.. too fast?

I opened the page in a new tab, and by the time I switched to the tab, the animation was already underway.

Any chance of adding a delay, perhaps based upon the page getting the focus?

Funny animation! I liked it.

Human, refresh your browser should do the trick.

hi thanks guys,
yeah maybe the 'bulk' of the animation happens too quick at the start - if you blink you miss it :P
I might try to delay it a bit... i'll see what the client says, but hitting refresh does restart the animation :)

I dont know if i can make it play on page focus... do you have any idea how this might be achieved? (if its possible, do you know the actionscript?)

Thanks!
