In this exercise I experimented with various poses for the already rigged model. I tried out various poses from mostly sports while still trying to remain varied to even a knight duel for further experimentation. I had pose not just the limbs but also fingers to add details to the character, adjust the neck, tilt their head to detail the posture and act. Make it seem more lifely. I also chose the poses because I felt there was some ambiguity to the expression and action of the character. Is he running and excising or running in fear?
Hey Ted - this looks all very reasonable to me. I think perhaps you need to make a decision fairly early on in terms of limiting the number of Disney princesses you're going to use as exemplars. I will say that the 'Disney princess' discussion is very well established and you might want to look at the representation of Disney's female villains - there's probably something as interesting to discuss about what those representations tell us about what society thinks about certain sorts of women... as the female villains are often much more proactive, intelligent and transgressive than the heroines - is that what codes them as 'untrustworthy'? I'd encourage you to look at these characters too because I suspect that will help you too.
