Slow Motion Study of Running At Different Speeds

The slow motion video analysis compares the same runner running at 3 different speeds. Using ultra slow motion, it shows differences in the foot strike, and how the shin is angled forwards at slower paces, and when slowing down. We also see a lazy arm action, and other, more subtle, differences.

I'm pretty sure more people are using this for animation than actual track running lol

The viewers of this video are 10% runners and 90% artists.

Thanks! Am trying to understand the running gait using this as a reference :)

Also look at how the heel collapses into the buttocks to become one with the thigh to swing in sync in a forward direction to carry on the momentum for the next step as to maintain speed. This is nuts how perfectly the human body is created for running/jogging. Amazing!

[alextronic]

great reference for animation, thanks

[WinicjuszPilarski]

Very helpful. I'm using it right now, to animate my character :)

[hugohoeglund]

Thank you so much! just the first 5 seconds allowed me to make a running animation

[danatito]

Cool video thanks.
Just a lil feedback, it would be helpful to draw or indicate the areas of comparison while talking on those points

[Sammalat]

lot from this vid
Thanks again
Please make more vids on this topic I really need help

[Ckwon]

i am actually using this as a reference for learning how to run and im not animating shit

[mr.muscle]

Yeah the more speed u r able to produce the more u r able to use it but also u have to be at that pace to reach that point where u can flex muscles according

[kartikeysharma]

People say I run "weird". Some say run like a robot. The other day a guy (that was running behind me) that I should move my arms "more" and mimicked the way I was running by letting the arms almost still and separating the elbows from the body (which someone pointed that before). I don't think it's got to do with the arms, but I know they're right somehow
