When modelling the 3rd ghost for the animation short I begin with a cube which I then added a subdivide modifier.  With the modifier on I started to model the ghost shape without applying the modifier so I could control the amount of polys I ended up with. I only added the modifier when I was happy with how the model looked.

Once I had my model completed, I started fixing the UV’s. I added a checkered texture and set the coordinates to UV so I could easily see how the UV’s looked. I careful marked out each seam and unwrapped the UVs until I got the UVs how I wanted them.

When the UV’s were fully completed I exported them out into substance painter.

(I later went back and changed the roughness so the model wasn’t as shinny).

During week five I have been working on the 3D previs for next’s weeks presentation.

I’m getting a feel for how the camerawork should be done in the final 30 second short as-well as the timing and animation of the ghosts.

This is my first 3D previous for camera work however, I don’t love it plus I didn’t get the timing correct.

This is my second attempt at the 3D previs which I am much happier with.

The timing still needs to be worked on but it’s much better than before.

This is my version of the storyboard for our group project

This is the lighting concept of the room for our hunted house idea.

Once I had the lighting concept done I went on with finishing my part of the room by fixing all the UV’s and adding on some textures (which can be changed at a later date if needs be).
