Peter Walk Cycle

I've been away from actually animating for a while with all of the facial and body rigging. So I decided to start back with a walk cycle tutorial from Chris Kirshbaum from Gnomon Workshop. This walk cycle is meant to be a simple, non-personality walk. Next I will edit the walk a few times to give it a lot of personality for Peter on stage, sad in the back alley or drunk on stage.

Since I've used character studio for such a long time it was great to learn more about editing curves for smooth animation. Peter's rig is a highly edited CAT rig by a great rigger - John Stewart. The rig uses euler curves for rotation instead of Quaternion like Character Studio.
