Tips and observations of bird flight



There's a fantastic tutorial about flight dynamics related to animals (thanks Ting for the tip!). It's by Brendan Body and you can check it out here. Go check it out, it's really in depth.

Brendan worked on Legend of the Guardians!
What an amazing tutorial! Thanks for sharing!! :) This would benefit not just students, but also many professional animators out there!

Hey Brendan, just wondering if you've worked with Kayne at Animal. He was our Animation lecturer last trimester.

Hey Bala,

Yup, I know Kayne, nice guy. He came over to Guardians for a couple of months at the end.
