I adjusted the follow through on Lollipops arms, in scene 11, to make them look less awkward. The body movement has been modified to make him have follow through when he stands. Gumball’s body has more movement to show more expression when he is shocked and abandoned by the kids. I need to adjust theContinue reading Semester 2 – Week 6

This week I adjusted scene 8-11. I started by rearranging the shots and animating Lollipop to look like he shut down and dropping his arms only to grab everyone’s attention by retracting his arms and striking a pose. Lollipop smugly looks at Gumball. I animated the owner stepping back after activating Lollipop, looking proud onlyContinue reading Semester 2 – Week 5

This week I finished the juggling animation and started roughing out the next scenes. I coloured the frames and added the background to the shot, adding lens blur at 10. The arms are separate from the body making them modular; the juggling arms will be used throughout the animation. (My Work) I then started to workContinue reading Semester 2 – Week 4

I completed the rough and lined the animation. I animated his arms to be stretchier and made his body sway back and forth, so he is not just standing still. I also lessened the number of balls he is juggling as it became difficult to keep up with all five and it better matches theContinue reading Semester 2 – Week 3

This week I worked on the roughing out the juggling animation, it will be used multiple times throughout the final animation, so I have taken the process a little slower to ensure the animation looks good. I started by blocking out one of the arms rotating in a clockwise motion, once that was right, IContinue reading Semester 2 – Week 2

Over the break I worked on the pipeline process test, a juggling loop animation, a balloon loop animation and some posters for the walls.  Pipeline Process  I started by blocking out the characters’ movements and camera movements. The arms do not move as I am making a separate juggling animation that will be applied toContinue reading Semester 2 – Week 1

Today in class we had a group tutorial with Mike, his feedback included:  Add a sphere and stick model to represent the characters into the room model to check the scale of the props.  Create about two more arcade machines to create a less repetitive background and adjust the scale of the machines  Finish theContinue reading Semester 1 – Week 11

Class After the one-to-one feedback session with Mike, he suggested:  Test how the 2D cake and characters will interact with the 3D table, consider making the table 2D in that scene if it looks weird or wrong.  Create a full pipeline test animation using one scene from our animatic, choose a scene that showcases everything.Continue reading Semester 1 – Week 10

Homework This week I added colour to the prop concept art, the backs of the chairs and party hats will be varied to look as if there are more models. The colours are based on the arcade machine Nicole designed. The bigger cake uses colour from both Lollipop and Gumball as we wanted it toContinue reading Semester 1 – Week 9

Class This week we were tasked with editing someone’s animatic from the previous presentation. I chose to edit Rachel Graham’s animatic; I edited the timing of the shots as I thought certain shots could be held to make them more impactful. Here is the edited animatic:  (Rachel Graham’s work)  We also had a one toContinue reading Semester 1 – Week 8
