Fantastic Voyage - Animation Ideas


For my animation, I have chosen to do the cell cycle as I felt that this was a topic that forms the bases of the other topics that we could have chosen form and that to understand them you would have to understand the basic cycle first.

I have decided to do the cell cycle from the checkpoint’s point of view as it was this part that I found the most interesting and that it was the most important part of the cycle. I also had the feeling that the checkpoints were like all seeing eyes that would be forever watching over the cells and picking out anything that seemed wrong.

    I think this is neat idea, Rhia - telling the story from the checkpoint's POV - just think about ways you can ensure the 'story' is engaging - you may need to characterise the checkpoint even more so if you want us to identify with it - so less an object, and more of a character who reacts/engages - obviously it can be 'robotic' or stylised character - anyway, I'll await your OGR with interest :)

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.
