I found that this animated advert for the 'Nike Football' app, was another great animation that could easily influence my work. Because for once, this animation illustrates realistic characters that are recognisable, but are also exaggerated. Each football player has a different body type, though quite similar, some of them have skinny legs, and other very broad shoulders, a good variation of the human form.
This animation made me realise that I will be drawing people of different shapes and sizes, and this is something I need to keep in mind. I have never really done life drawing before, therefore this brief is daunting for me, let alone having to try and represent different people in different mediums.
In terms of the videos contents, I just really love how the characters walk, it is one step up from most of the animated videos I have seen. The pauses, the hesitation, they are all so realistic, and I really love them. If I paused the video at any time, i'm sure I would see an interesting pose that I could try and get someone to copy, especially since it is so physically sports related.
Overall I can't really do this animation justice, because it is one where you have to personally visualise it to see what I mean. The movements within are not something I could describe to an extent where you could visualise it in your head, and I would really like to focus drawing different body types and shapes, as I think it is done so successfully in this animation.
