Narrative Visual Perspective in Animation<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Introduction<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The goal of the Narrative Unit in Animation was to create a character design, and then translate it into a 3D model using Maya, Zbrush, and Substance Painter. From there, we would animate these characters in several ways (lip sync, basic run\/walk\/jump, etc). Eventually, would collaborate in small groups to create a short narrative animation based on the skills we learned in these three programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Character Bio<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I like how this model came out for the most part. I wish I could have molded her dress separately so that creating things like the ruffles would have been easier. I also would have liked to add the sleeves and accessories I originally included in her design.<\/p>\n\n\n

Test Animations<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Creating these three animations was quite a horrible task. I didn’t find that I had enough time to finish these in class, so I did some of them on my really laggy home computer. It worked! (surprisingly…) I did the run and the jump at home and completed the walk in class following Mr. Cho’s tutorial. Personally, I found it easier to observe the motion, then try to copy it, rather than being taken through a step-by-step tutorial (I think that just confused me more). I didn’t mind animating in Maya too much, but I generally felt like I wasn’t able to express maybe as well (artistically) in this medium of animation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
