Here’s a clip of a trombone animation I’m working on.

Tell me what you think.
A bit static, and a strange environment, and the movements are too artificial and abrupt.
I just added a plane with a picture on it for the background, while I was testing the reflections. I will have a chair and music stand in my final one. I don’t have the textures on, since this was just a sound test.
Shouldn’t the slide be moving out for lower notes?
No, you can play like 5 or 6 different notes on each slide postition.
Trom-boner :Z for 3 years…
You can do it, but it’s tough to play a low note in 1st position and then a high note in 3rd position if you move the slide that quick. Also, if you watch real close, a lot of players dont stop that abrubptly, they kind of waver a little bit. The reason for this is that the slide is usually so well oiled (or greased, depending on who’s playing) that it’s hard to stop your arm. (At least, it was for me)
It’s not that important though, you can’t see it unless you’re really paying attention or the player is bad.
Yea, I’m just getting the positions set now…
I’ll probably make it waver, if I have time.
