Spider-Man & God of War Animator Shares Valuable Tips on Gameplay Animation

Avery Adams' insightful series will help you push your animation skills to the next level.

Back in early April, Gameplay Animator at Insomniac Games Avery Adams, who previously worked on Sony's God of War and Avalanche's Hogwarts Legacy, kicked off Anim Tips, a new educational series of short guides on all things 3D animation.

Shared on a weekly basis via Avery's social media pages, Anim Tips showcase and explain valuable gameplay animation techniques, utilizing sequences from various projects the author has worked on in the past as examples. Each sequence is accompanied by an insightful explanation of diverse animation topics, including in-between poses, effectively conveying character emotions through animation, choreography, and more.

"I really want to start giving back to the animation community by providing resources and encouragement for all levels of animators," commented Avery on the idea behind the series. "I learned almost everything from online tutorials and a handful of animators that showed a lot of their process, such as Rory Alderton, Warren Goff, Christopher Hsing, Richard Lico, Ricky Wood, David Gibson, Jason Shum, Dillon Goo, Monty Oum, to name a few, thank you all for your public tutorials and lessons you’ve shared!"

So far, the Anim Tips series is still in its infancy, with only three entries available as of the time of writing. However, it seems that its creator has no plans to stop anytime soon and intends to share many more insights into the realm of 3D gameplay animation going forward. Therefore, we highly recommend following Avery on Twitter and LinkedIn so as not to miss any future breakdowns.
