MAX 6 and Character Studio 4

After having animated each of the des protagonists separately, I embarked on a fight scene between a woman and a panther. For this, I used differents references : The Lion King and a documentary about tigers. For the little pirouette of the lady, I have studied the fight scene with Darth Maul, in Episode 1 of Star Wars.
The cubes andthe bars were animated with Reactor in Max (physics simulation). A few keys were then tuned to fit the rest of the animation. The 2 pieces which fall at the end were "hand" animated.
As a result, we have a mix between realistic movements and some fantastic jumps.
