This is a very rough draft of the animation that I am working on. The timings are still non-existent, and there is still a ton of work needed, which should be obvious. This is the vast majority of the thumbnails put into a linear transition mode. I was originally intending to post this with held […]
This is my check-in for week three, I had stated my goal for week three was to have my modeling completed and the initial pass on the animation put together. Unfortunately to my shame, I have apparently either overestimated my abilities or the amount of time that I would be able to devote to this

So today I managed to build an ROV for use in the upcoming animation, it came together fairly nice and was an enjoyable experience. However yesterday I was working on a single point mooring buoy, it was not an enjoyable experience and was very frustrating. I think a large part of it was my fault,
I spent way too much time on this, but I am happy with how this is looking and I am very happy with my lines being quadded and holding lines appropriately placed on this. I hope that i will be able to model all aspects of the SHRC to this level. I know this isn’t

Here is my final upload for the Merlin’s ball and Box project I was working on for FOA-O. I was called into to work today so unfortunately I didn’t have time or the opportunity to implement some of the final effects and passes that I was hoping for on this project. This playblast is my last pass

I’ve gone through and tweaked a whole bunch of the curves. I’ve also attempted to deal with the points that were brought up in the previous critiques.

I went back and re-rendered my fire animation from earlier. I felt it was getting too blue, (da-ba-de-dub-a-die) so I adjusted the lights in the scene as well as the bump-map. I feel that this result is much nicer, although to really polish off this hallway I think that displacement maps would help immensely. I had this
Here is my fourth entry for the Merlin’s ball and box project. I ran into some weird bugs with my playblast, and I sorted through most of them, but my resolution gate has vanished on the playblast. I built the animation to be viewed a little bit closer up, and the problem with the resolution gate

For this post my goal was to take my existing “thumbnail” animation and convert it over to a linear animation. This turned out to be a great opportunity to rework all of my timings and to begin exploring how the animation might play out in a more straight ahead manner compared to the pose to
