Major: Pop-up Redesigns 2

I've had to re-do some of the designs for the pop-ups one last time as they still seemed hard to read. The Can't Sleep pop-up has been changed to look like a clock and the Travellers pop-ups now looks like a compass.

There is also the idea of maybe animating the pop-ups, as in making the hands of the clock hands going round. Part of me can see now this can work but another part of me thinks that the animation might be lossed when the pop-ups starts to move around. I also can't work out how I wound animate some of the designs, such as the Farmer pop-up.

This might be something that I might have to do a small test for to see if the animation will work for these designs.

    Okay - it's me again - soooo... looking so much more emblematic and interesting now ... but I think you need the North / East / South / West Capital letters on your compass, so people know what it is - I don't think everyone will read this as a compass straight away... Also - I've been thinking about your 'Jack Frost' grass... again, I think this looks like it could be seaweed or tentacles (or it could be construed as this) I have this idea for you instead, which I also think will make better use of your circle pop-ups ...

    Make it a cobweb with those little 'beads' on them - I think that will work much more immediately - I know you'll groan when you read this, but give it some thought :)

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.
