What if Metropolis - Thumbnail sketches 91 - 94

With these thumbnails I was trying to put together the different elements of my final design. Numbers 91 to 93 was just me trying to work out in what way I should show my city and how the hot air balloons should relate to the buildings.

91 had the city off to the side alittle and the hot air balloons where showen to be quite large conpared to the buildings.

I had throught of using a bird's eye view of the city as show in number 92. After doing this sketch however I felt that it wouldn't really work when showing the geomerty of the buildings. It did, however, help me work out how I might arranging the different buildings.

93 was more or less was I was aiming for as I had the buildings evenly sprend out and the balloons where not dwarfing them. I then moved this idea over to sketch 94 where I put it agesnt the backdrop that I wanted to use for my matte painting.

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

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.
