Once we got a better idea of how our story was going to work with the help of our early storyboards, both mine and Lyndsey’s can be seen this in this post. We tried to refine the idea and try to make the storyline more clear from our regular feedback from lecturers. Lyndsey’s final storyboardContinue reading Animated Narratives – 3D Pre-vis
I set up a discord server for our group and we quickly got started on coming up with some initial ideas. Lyndsey had a really good idea to start us off about a waterfight happening between plantpots. She also made a miro board for us all to collaborate on and share ideas, references, concept art,Continue reading Animated Narratives – Initial Ideas + Concept Work

My model is based on Lyndsey’s early concept art of the character, particularly the one wearing the knight’s helmet. Smooth preview + Arnold aiStandardSurface shaders UVs Lyndsey’s character concepts which I used as the referenceContinue reading Animated Narratives – Character Model
This week, after working on some concepts for this assignment I got started on doing the blockout for my character sculpt. Having my concept in blender as a reference image was super helpful in getting proportions, placement and the overall general look. This was something which I found frustrating during class exercises so far, notContinue reading 3D Digital Literacy – Assignment 2 Blockout + Class Exercise
I was struggling a bit to come up with concepts for this assignment. I went through a bunch of different themes and possibilities. I could probably do anything really for assignment; I was really focused on doing animals like birds, otters, dogs, etc. I’d been thinking about what I wanted to do for this assignmentContinue reading 3D Digital Literacy – Assignment 2: Sculpt Concepts

Researching some other character models and concepts from looking at other artist work on Sketchfab. I made two collections to group together models that I thought would be helpful to use as inspiration for my own project. I have a stylised collection which gathers texture work that I enjoy and I want to try toContinue reading Cute Character Assignment: Initial Reference & Research
Lyndsey’s storyboard so far + her designs For my version of the board I liked Lyndsey’s storyboard panels from 1 to 6 that show the establishing shot of the candle and the battle between the two spirit groups at the start. Then my board is an alternate version of Lyndsey’s 7th and 8th panels butContinue reading 3D Animated Short – Storyboards + Animatic Progress
