Life Drawing - Day 1

Life drawing is something that I have done before so I saw today as an exercise in getting back into looking at how the human body is shaped depending on the pose.
First drawing
The first drawing that I did showed just how out of practice I was when it comes to scaling up the different body parts. In the second drawing I was alot freer with how I put my marks on the paper, I also fleet that I was able to work better in charcoal as I able to put the marks down faster while picking up on the different bumps and curves.
Second drawing
Doing the single line drawings did make me follow the whole of the model's body and understand the ways that I can move the pencil on the paper and that the drawing doesn't have to look realistic.
Third drawing
By the third drawing I was starting the get back into the flow of drawing and picking out the simplest ways in which to express the depth of the body.

    Hi Rhia! :)

    Welcome to the course! Hope your first few weeks have been exciting!

    I'm Joe, a 2nd year (the guy that co-presented that rather riveting C.A.A Survival guide to you last Friday). Phil asked me to pop by and offer assistance for your first few weeks, So here I am.

    Think of me as an additional person to call for help if you need it.

    My blog is over at tromacorp.blogspot.co.uk

    If you’re in a fix and need to see evidence of how someone else has tackled a bit of work, you can see all of my work for inspiration from “Invisible Cities” here.

    Ciao for now,

Minor: Pre-viz and notes

Image
This is the per-viz for my Minor project that I have been working on over the summer. I set about doing this to get a better idea of now some of the shots would play out and to test out now some of the pops be shown. I am happy with some of the shot, such as the way that the Sun and Moon are introduceed, close ups that I have used for both characters, the way that Moon swings round with the crown along with the way the image fades out on the Sun at the end. I'm not too happy with some of the shots that have the characters moving around but this might be because I was focused on the walk cycle and I might not need it in my finished animation. I also think that the shot of the sun and moon spining round might have been done abit better.

@Alan Collaboration: Walk Test

Walk Cycle test from Rhia Crouch on Vimeo . Been trying to work on Moom's walk for a skit but I'm not sure what else to do before I put him in to the screen so I can work out him swimming and coming out of the water. He is meant to walk as if he is weigh down by the goo and also wobbels a little bit. I know the eyes are off and there seems to be a phantom animation going on with his right hand that I can't work out.

Premise: Feedback Ideas

Image
After presenting my ideas for my animation I was given the idea of making the characters of the Sun and Moon look like paper lanterns. This idea would fit in with giving the story a sense of history and culture along with helping me to think about the overall designs of the characters.
