The Ladz: Week 6

Cracking on

This week I began animating roughs for the more difficult scenes. I animated this scene using a 3d animated reference of Moom falling. We also decided on the type of animation we were going for; slight rubberhose, with smears only when motion is really fast. We also decided we'd be using TVPaint as it is an industry standard animation software.

What went well:

• Using 3D reference that I animated in Maya helped me visualise tumbling through the ketchup void,
• There was quite a learning curve on TVPaint, but we helped each other learn techniques and keyboard shortcuts.

What could be improved:

• The type of animation should've been decided a bit earlier so some scenes wouldn't have to be redone.
