I had very little time to complete my assignment for Mike’s module due to procrastination and persistent focusing on other modules. Over the course of a single day, I set to work on multi-resing, texturing, rigging, and posing my Asanbosam character. Before I started modelling my asanbosam character, I had to conceptualise her first. SheContinue reading 3D Digital Literacy- Asanbosam development and Reflection

Today in Mike’s Module we learned about Rigging with a preretopogised character he made a few years back. We first create an armature bone and position it between the chest and pelvis area of the model, and then extrude ot extra bones and then position them into the various places of the model, such asContinue reading Week 11- Rigging

Today we learned about how to add minute details to our models without raising the polygon count to machine breaking levels, By using a tool known as the Multi Res modifier, we can create maps what add details to a model without making the polygon count too large for our machines to handle. First, weContinue reading Week 10- Multi-res levels and detail adding

I decided to do more work on the sculpt of my asanbosam character. I created the limbs using several modified cylinders and spheres, and then used cylinders with added centre vertices to create the pointed fingers of the character. When it came to sculpting, I used the clay build up and strip tools for theContinue reading Week 9- Sculpting

Today we were taught a way to make modelling easier- Retopology. Retopology makes low polygon models that are easier to animate and model than the original meshes they were based on. A way to aid topologizing a model is to use the polygon fill tool, which involves taking an edge of a place and automaticallyContinue reading Week 9- Topology

In Mike’s Module we practiced preparing a character for sculpting. I blocked out my practice character using several different primitives, such as spheres, a cube with subdivision surface applied, cylinders and cones. I then attempted to remesh the model, but I put the number of pixels for remeshing so small that it ended up crashingContinue reading Week 8- Sculpting

This week for Mike’s Module I had to do research on Genndy Tartakovsky as well as draw out some designs for a hypothetical character in his artstyle who would appear in Hotel Transylvania. Gennedy Tartokovsky is an award winning animation visionary director and a legendary name in the modern day animation industry, known for creatingContinue reading Week 7- Genndy Tartakovsky

Blender Animation Portfolio – YouTube Week 1 Week 2   Week 3 Week 4    Week 5 Before I started at the University, I had very little knowledge on Blender, though I did have experience using Maya to animate and rig models, but that knowledge had since become dormant and lost in places. In addition,Continue reading 3D Digital Literacy- Completed Models, Textures and Animations

Before I started at the University, I had very little knowledge on Blender, though I did have experience using Maya to animate and rig models, but that knowledge had since become dormant and lost in places. In addition, I had not made 3D animated content in Blender before. Now, I have learned a lot fromContinue reading 3D Digital Literacy- Reflection
