Hulk Character Rig: Reskining and Experimentation

 Session Review

I
2d Smash By Sebastian Jones
 further edited the existing Hulk texture simply for fun and re-skinned the existing texture as the Red Hulk. In addition, I planned on creating an animation of him raising his hands in the air and slamming his fists to the ground, just like my 2d fist slam.

However, I am still having trouble bending his arm, so until I resolve this issue, I cannot complete any arm movement with the Hulk character rig. Towards the end of today's session in the classroom, I proceeded to create the sequence of my 2d character leaping in the air and slamming his hands to the ground; however, I wanted some critical feedback on my animation since I had good key poses, as my lecturer has stated many times, although I needed to create three additional frames of my character standing idle, then bending his knees and leaping off the ground. 

During the end of the session, I proceeded to search for another human character rig so I could focus on creating lip sync for a piece of audio that gives me a lot of seconds for my collection because so far my final renders folder is eleven seconds. Thankfully, on my university learning resource, the Blackboard, I followed a link that led me to the animation website 11 Second Club.

Human Locomotion Module Review

Monday 27th April 2015 Session Review C ontinuing from the previous sessions yesterday of which I am personally proud of the amount of work I had created. I have begun to truly fill the structured module review I created on the twelfth of April 2015.  In addition, I had contacted my lecturer yesterday evening to inquire on firstly what topics to discuss in the report and secondly was my writing to be a reflective review of the module or a learning report detailing my critical steps during my final major project(goblin animation collection)... I have also started to research cave painting and Grecian pottery art and animations. The reason for this was because after reading the brief and practical work criteria it detailed in order for me to achieve a higher grade I would need to build a collection that displayed a wide variety of styles and cultural concepts. So I thought to myself the simplicity of cave paintings and Grecian art would match my rough hand-drawn 2d anima...

Troll Character Experimentation

Wednesday 1st April 201 Session Review P reviously on Monday, I attempted to build a collection of videos of knights walking in 3d, 2d and real life footage; however, judging on what I have found so far personally it did not convey the weight of a suit of armour. So in this session the free troll model I downloaded from a website named animation 101. During the time spent observing and experimenting with the troll character, I finally learned how to animate the characters features and limbs by clicking on the name troll in Maya and thankfully this models fully rigged including his eye and mouth which would be excellent for a 3d lip sync.

3 Studio Max; Max Character Death Animation

Saturday 2nd May 2015 Session Review Animating the character Max By Sebastian Jones A s the final submission date draws near I will ignore Jacques word son only using Maya for our 3d animation work and use 3d studio max since I was unsuccessfully in downloading Maya 2013 and 2014 on my home PC. In addition, the character rig was from the 11-second club and I recognize as the model I used for my BTEC Level 3 games design animation module and the creator has done a good job since the rig is cleanly setup where each joint rotates and moves accordingly and there is a broad range of facial feature movement controllers.
