Launching the group page tomorrow. I'll try and see if I can get it promoted on the OSFM frontpage, but no promises

The group page is ready, but I haven't put it up due to not having a logo. Anyone good at making logos?

What I plan to do is set up the 'Core exercises' that anyone (beginner to Advanced) can do. These exercises will follow the 12 principles and can be done multiple times.

Once they are done then the more complex methods of materials and particles can be explored

Awesome, there seems to be some interest which is great! I'm designing the logo for the Group and getting everything setup.

What I need is some ideas of where people are struggling animation-wise, what areas would you like to focus on? This is just to get the first exercise started

The way I stick with projects is to do a rough cut where everything looks shit, but gets the basic ideas down. Then I choose which shots I'll be interested in doing that day. It helps to write/draw/film the things that interest me, or that I feel will work for that particular piece.

Sounds like a plan. I was thinking that it would be awesome to get a list of workshop items that people could use for practice

These aren't big exercises, they will mostly be aimed at refreshing people's skills in the 12 principles. OSFMchallenges will still be there

I'm thinking of creating a group dedicated to improving and refining an animator's skills, would people be interested in this?

Edit: Ahead of when I planned to release the page, but here it is
