Cat Walk Cycle Animation Tutorial [Step by Step]

A cat walk cycle animation is a great way start to learning creature animation. Although, most animators get confused, as soon as they start animating any creature with 4 legs. So if you’re able to animate a cat walk with decent weight and mechanics it can help your demo reel stand out from the pack. In this animation tutorial I’m going to walk you through it all step by step. And while this animation is far from perfect - it should hopefully end a lot of the confusion, as well as boost your confidence in creating more quadruped animations. Then after you give this a go I recommend trying out a Cat Run Cycle next.
