I found this project to be very beneficial, as it allowed me to continue developing the relationships with classmates who I had worked with in Semester One. Because the group forming had already happened, we started work quickly and the overall team experience was pleasant. We kept brainstorming throughout the project, and we all gaveContinue reading Animated Narratives – Personal Reflection and Year One Reflection

This is the final class of the First year, and also the final week before the deadline. During which we will be presenting our final 30 second animation to the class.

Today in class we focused more on Post-Production in After Effects in our own time – but a lot of today involved trying to get our arcade properly lit, textured, scaled and ready to go.

Today in class we focused more on Lighting and how to use it in our scenes. By the time we got around to this, our Team had already established the lighting in both the Arcade and the Claw Machine.

Hence the logo) You don’t see it, but the logo is also inside the mug itself. After uploading it to the one drive, EllenContinue reading Animated Narratives – Week 7 (16th March – 22nd March)
I decided to create a half-eaten pizza in its Box and included these references as textures to create it. Made the Pizza in Blender in a fashion similar to the Coke Can that we created in Semester 1. It’s just a prop for the background – and it does remind me of how some videoContinue reading Animated Narratives Week 6 – March 9th – March 15th)
Before putting together our Previs, we had to develop our own components, and that includes our own versions of all the characters (Because we have yet to decide who is going to finalize what character) – Though I decided to create the Bird – this week I made the rest. I created a concept stageContinue reading Animated Narratives – Week 5 (March 2nd – March 8th)
