Hey, not updated in a while because I got carried away with getting my graded unit but i'll be doing an overview of what ive done in this post.
For the first week I got all my research sorted. I created mood boards with different anthropomorphic characters and I explained why i picked them and what I liked about them. Also I created an action plan where I spoke about my interpretation of the brief, why I picked it and different animation ideas I had.
The next part was the ideas and development. This is where my ideas took off and I really began to enjoy the brief. I ended up with a whole bunch of sketches as the brief demanded a model sheet for each of my characters (I had 5) on top of all my ideas, development and facial expressions.
Once I began my modeling I came up with the idea for my animation, which was sort of a Toy Story theme, where when the characters are as there objects when someone is in the room but when alone they turn into their characters. When I came up with the idea I was worried that I would not be able to fully follow it as it was ambitious, however I did, almost to perfection.
When it came to animating it went pretty well, I managed to get everything to go how I wanted it to and the facial expressions turned out to work really well and from there everything went really well.
As for my grade I got a high A grade which I am over the moon with and to be honest, because of the amount of time, work and effort I put into it I wouldn't have been happy with anything other than an A. But I do always try my best and always want the best.
