ONW now project

This project was a weird one. I haven't been given an outline for this to follow, so ill just give a synopsis of how we finished it, as well as my role in it. We were split into two different groups, and we each did the same thing. We started by coming up with the stories we would use. We then recorded the intro. All the people who were recording stores went out to record them, and I stayed here since I was part of production. we did a few run-throughs. and then actually recorded. After that we were finally done.

Multilayer/ Story blog

   So, my multilayer project is complete. I decided what I would do, is make it on a distant planet. I am not the one who made the planet, however I did recreate it, thus the title. It took me a little extra time to finish it, but boy am I glad I did. I first made the background and worked up for the rest. I edited the movement of the layers, and this was the result.









I couldn't finish the story animation. Im sorry. here is what I have though

Final

    My first project of  the year was a remake of my bouncing ball project. I  Made a ball with a background and multiple layers for the foreground. Through the project i learned how to use after effects to make animations. I haven't been very great at using after effects, but I do know enough about it to make it work and get things done, and done well. I have been trying to improve my skills. If I could redo this animation, I would have  fixed all the little errors with it. Overall, this was a well done project, that I enjoyed making.



   Another one of the projects I did was the story animation. It required me to make multiple characters, backgrounds, faces and layers. Through this project I learned that animation is incredibly time consuming. I spent hours upon hours working on it, but then issues occurred leaving me no time to work. I ended up staying after eventually, but even that wasn't enough, thus it is incomplete. However after this is up, I will be posting the work I did get done.




   My first big project in Maya, was making a castle with polygons. I learned how to use booleans, as well as apply textures. It was a very interesting project, and a lot of fun too, since I was doing something new. As soon as I finished it, I screwed up something with the camera, so it didn't look quite right. If I could do it again, I wouldn't screw up the camera.
