Knockout

Knockouts Within all fighting games like Ultimate fighting championship you would see elements such as a knockout where you or the opponent would fall to the ground due to a heavy blow thus losing or winning. I got my cousin to film footage of me falling on a cushion to avoid injury.

Here is an attempt of me pretending to be knocked out.

This was a fun experiment to create this footage so I tried to recreate it as an animation. I started off with a normal stance leading with the left foot and from here I worked out the key poses and positions using the reference footage.


Pose 1


Pose 2 


Pose 3


Pose 4


pose 5


pose 6




I also added a bopping effect at the start of the animation so it seems like it was caught off guard in the animation or just after finishing a move.

This footage was filmed because I believe it relates to the game animation I’m trying to imitate. Knockouts are usually the means to win. When that happens the player is overwhelmed with joy when he or she wins, so I believe it’s an important part to have in this animation show reel.


 Overall the knock out could have been better, such as using online referencing of fighters being knocked out. If I was to do this again I would research more into knockouts and how people pass out from taking a heavy blow to the head.
