Starting to Animate

In our Muybridge reference there are 16 poses, so set the whole animation to 16 frames.

In the side view, key frame the first pose concentrating on just the legs by translating and rotating the ankle controls and rotating the hoof controls. You don't need to be perfect but just to get a basic idea of the poses, as we'll be tweaking parts as we go along.

The first and last frames need to be the same to create a cycle, so select all the controls on frame 1, and with the middle mouse button click on frame 16 and press "S". This allows us to keep the pose the same whilst moving along the timeslider.
