Major: Pop-ups 2

I've been working on the rest of the pop-ups that will appear in my animation. As I was making then I was thinking about the feedback that I got for the first set that I had made and tried to implement it in designs, but I feel that some might need to be re-worked.

Lovers Pop-up

Sleep Pop-up

Travellers Pop-up

Wave Pop-up

    Hi Rhia.... I don't think 'zzzz' is very 'traditional' right? Why don't you just have a bed? Do you need all these people in these icons? I don't think so. I also don't understand the travellers one either? I think you need to think a bit harder and more 'beautifully' about these assets, Rhia - they are going to read as 'lumps' if you're not careful... take a look at the silhouette work of Lotte Reiniger for a clear example of how you might think in more refined ways about these 'delicate' scenes - remember the whole laser-cutting references - you can get much more detail - and design! - into those elements...

    and take a look at these:

    Can I suggest that maybe you start thinking about collaging silhouettes together (from other sources) and then taking those into Maya and turning them into these assets? I just don't think your line work/silhouette work is elegant or communicative enough for audiences to make the link between what they're hearing and what they're being shown.

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.
