To try something new I went to a character rigging workshop normally advised for the animation students. To experiment with something new I went and tries it out anyway which I found was the most confusing and complicated workshop ever yet. Using the software Cinema 4D to create a character from scratch and then to add movements to make it walk.
Unfortunately all my screenshots that I had taken for this exercise have been deleted from my University folder which I had no back up of.
However we started with creating a basic cylinder in which we rigged using anchor points to create it to bend. This workshop I feel wasn't for me as it was to technical and way to confusing with the amount of technological terms and functions involved however on the positive side I got the experience of how to create a small animation which in fact requires a huge amount of work!

This was my Final Animation I created that day, which in my opinion is a good attempt for a first try.
