The Narrative 2 project is similar to the Narrative 1 project that we did in our junior year but using 3d modeling instead of drawing 2d characters. In my group, we had trouble at first coming up with what to do for our story because two of the characters were more sci-fi and space themed, while mine was a clown. We were eventually able to overcome this challenge by making the story about two people who crashed their ship on an unknown planet and asked the clown for help back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-color has-link-color has-large-font-size wp-elements-f1ab4045040687ac0d55c200b89fafa0\" style=\"color:#163295\">Character Model<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"814\" height=\"815\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LexiI\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Lexi_Ivy-SP-character-render1-edited.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-766\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LexiI\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Lexi_Ivy-SP-character-render1-edited.jpg 814w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LexiI\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Lexi_Ivy-SP-character-render1-edited-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LexiI\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Lexi_Ivy-SP-character-render1-edited-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~LexiI\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Lexi_Ivy-SP-character-render1-edited-768x769.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 814px) 100vw, 814px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">For my 3D character I playing around with different ideas of what I wanted my character to be. Some considerations were: something space or fantasy themed, or an anthropomorphic cat\u2026 when finally I decided I wanted to make a clown. When looking for inspiration, I ended up finding the animation studio, Red Nose Studio and decided I was going to use the style of their 3d characters as style inspiration for my clown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"23 24 p6 3D Walk Run Jump LexiI\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/oV4RoY_Ou3g?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">For the walk, run, and jump animations we set keyframes to have the character be in certain positions at certain frames. An example of this would be having the character getting ready to jump for the first few frames, in the air at frame 8, then a few keyframes for them reaching the ground again. For this, we wouldn\u2019t have a keyframe for every time they moved because the character will move from one position to the next even if the poses are 3 keyframes apart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-color has-link-color has-large-font-size wp-elements-f7a704062d3088cd42d7095aa8b3422a\" style=\"color:#163295\">Narrative Animation<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"23 24 p6 3D Narrative Animation AlexisC ArthurK LexiI\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/lb45SrO3olU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Something I really valued from the production of my Narrative 2 animation was using motion capture and figuring out what movements work with it and what doesn\u2019t along with how to work around that problem. For example, we had a scene in our narrative when 2 of the characters land on the ground after crashing their ship but the sensors on the motion capture don\u2019t work when you\u2019re lying down. I noticed in the green room that the walls were the green screen is are curved and leaned against those to create a lying down effect which worked effectively in our animation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For the animation narrative we worked in groups of 3 to create a short story using the characters we made during the previous unit.
