Final Animation
This week I finished my section of our group animation, from last week I added robot faces on the cubes. I also used una’s art of the alleyway at the end to help with the transition into her scene.
This week I made a few changes to my to storyboard to help with timing and the flow of the animation. I removed the shot of the panning skyline and instead added a pan down to reveal the ‘Cyber guards’. I also change the alley way scene to pan from behind a building instead of zooming in.
I also started work on my animation, but I was having trouble with the software I was using; Blender, as I wasn’t very confident in using it and was running into problems. So I decide to switch to Adobe animate. Which made the process a lot easier. However, I wanted to experiment with 2D/3d Hybrid animation. And I was able to achieve this with blenders grease pencil. Currently I trying to decide between which shot I should use for the animation.

Below is how the animation would look with the 2D/3D hybrid shot.
Below is how the animation would look with a 2D shot of the robots, (Robots still need to be added)
I took reference for the Hybrid shot from Star War EP2: Attack Of The Clones and Rick and Morty.
