Final Pipeline work

Hi Guys.

This week I have been working on finalizing animations, tweaking cameras, lighting and rendering the E4 sting. I hope to finish rendering over the weekend for hand in of the project next week. Here is a new Previz of the E4 sting which has close to final camera angles, but i changed some for the final renders.

Animation Effects and Motionbuilder exercise

Hi Everybody!
This week I have been working on tests for the crack and crumble animation effects for the E4 sting. I learned how to make these effects by using youtube tutorials.















This week we also had a class exorcise on how to use Autodesk Motionbuilder. It's bit more awkward to use than Maya but now I am able to edit and combine motion capture data.

Proxy Rig creation

This week I worked on creating the character's Proxy rig. I used techniques I learned last year and using Tina O'Hailey's book "Rig it Right". I will use this proxy rig when making the Pre viz.

Pipeline Animatic

Hi there,
So this week I focused on the developing of the E4 sting story by making storyboards and animatics. The camera is a bit too flat in these plans so I will experiment with different camera angles when I make Pre vizs.
