Hey all, new to animation here, trying to wrap my mind around takes.
Do I understand correctly that takes are unrelated to each other?
Say I want a character to jump around on the screen. I can make multiple passes through the animation changing different joints on each pass etc. All that goes in to a single take. Got it so far.
I could use a 2nd take to create an entirely different animation which isn't related to the first, right? And then I could review the different takes, keep the one I like the best, and dump the losers.
Does the above generally describe the purpose of takes?
Is there a way to sequence the takes? You know, take one plays, then take two plays, then take three etc? Or would I instead render each take separately and then combine them all in a video editor?
Please feel free to teach me anything at all about takes. Pretty much anything you write will probably be educational here. Thanks!
