Setting up the animation blog
In this section of the blog I am going to talk about
setting up a background for my animation scene. This is important as it acts of
a visual element for an animation scene, like when you think about “Pixar” films
like “Toy Story” where the toys are in a
kids bedroom.
To start off with I created a cuboid and rotated it so
it would look like a wall.
It is also important to add texture for visual aid to
further enhance the fact it is a wall. The film my animation is based on is the
“Matrix” and is the scene where the female lead character “Trinity” fights the
police; in order to make the wall look more like the one in the scene I print
screened the movie clip and edited out the wall in “Photoshop”
I applied it to the wall but it came out the wrong way
To solve this I flipped the uv’s .
Next I created another wall and applied the closet pattern
to the wall from the film I could find.
Next I created a floor and applied a tile texture that was
close to the one in the film.
I then started on the table.
I started making support beams by copying the top of the
table.
I then resized the piece and attach them together and
applied a concrete texture to it.
For filming different parts of the animation I added more walls
and a city background.
What I learned
By doing this I learned how important setting up a
background for an animation as it further adds the visual side of animation.
Without a background I couldn’t imagine many 3D films working and even being
watchable. I planned to do more background work in my animations in the future,
in order to give my viewers a better sense of the scene.
