Collaboration: First Ideas

With the start of our second year in Computer Animation Arts we have been put in to groups so that we can work together on creating an animated short. This way we can get an understanding of working in a studio like environment as well as working with other people and sharing ideas.

The people I will be working alongside are:
Laura, Alexis and Jess

For our animation we were given a prompt that we had to come up with ideas for following the theme of comedy.

Our prompt is:
“When not to......”

We all decided that we would all go away and think up some of our own ideas for this and show them to each other the next day. The ones that I was able to think up were:

....Play a ball game
....Point out/ see a spider
....Get on a rollercoaster
....Get a hair cut
....Go on holiday
....Bring your Girlfriend/ Boyfriend home
....Juggle
....Pop the question
....Die
....Dine and dash
....Get a tattoo
....Go on a diet
....Google yourself
....Swim
....Sneezes
....Change channel
....Hit send

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.
