FINAL ANIMATION!!!!!!!....part 1...heh!
Project diary blog for Abertay University student Martin McGregor's honors project. The project involves the creation of a short 4/5 min animation.
Ive got to the stage in my animation where the character is on the roof.as ive been building my sets as i need them its time to get this one fin. Its the more important of the scenes as it will feature more often and will prob consist of more actual 3d modeling and textureing than the other scenes.
this is the first part of my animation...still have lots to do. its not fully edited and i think ill speed up the animation a wee bit in some parts.
As you can tell from the title of this post the creating , rigging and animating of the pigeon has taken 3 days of work(original time scale was one day) and was a feckn nightmare.
This is my first ever complete scene for my animation. It is only 8 seconds long ( 5.52 mins to go!) but it has taken me a whole day to complete with all the compositing in aftereffects. I wanted to start with this scene as I'm researching symbolism and cinematography for my dissertation. Although the symbolism in this scene is fairly straight forward. The scene is the main characters hallway. He is an elderly man who lives on his own after the death of his wife. I wont go into the story at the moment but the main theme is about letting go and moving on. In this particullar composition i wanted to show some of these story points.
