Reflective Statement

I feel this project went well in a variety of curriculum however also failed stupendously at others. The execution of a readable and grounded story in my Pri-Vis was a success and achieving a fully finished pre-vis was something i thought in un-achievable with how long it was taking once i started the process. However due to my poor time management skills whilst developing my story, my character concept art and animatic  suffered and as such alone the animatic is unreadable. This is also in part to long camera shots that i could visualize in Maya however drawing them on paper is something i was not confident in. The art of my character could have been better however by the time i decided on the story and the characters i was nearing production on my Pre-vis so the art could be better and more refined.

I an still very pleased with the work i produced, i am proud of my pre-vis even though i was unsure about it. once i go into maya and could change and re-change my camera shots everything cam together. some small post processing happened after the Pre-vis was made showing some color shifts and small effects.

Lion King : Archetypes

  Film Review: Lion King Hero: Simba is the hero of our story and fits the archetype of a hero so well when thinking about the hero's journey.

Herald:  Rafiki calls Simba to action and shows him a way to get in contact with his father. He helps the hero find there way and shows Simba the path when he's lost. The Threshold Guardian: I think the threshold guardians are the hyenas in the lion king. i think this is because they are present and the threat when Simba and Nala go into the darklands, crossing the threshold into defiance against Mufasa. Trickster: Timon as he plan's to use Simba for safety as he is a lion and can scare off other predators.  Mentor/father: Mufasa if Simba's father and mentor, a father figure who is teaching him to be king even after his death at the start of the movie. Allies: Timon, Pumba and Nala are the main all...

Reflective statement 'What if Metropolis'

Reflective statement 'What if Metropolis' I found this project enjoyable however i feel that the changes to the start of this project, and the lack of artist research and visual development, made the start of the project slow and less enjoyable. I do like having choice of our concept art, because of this we have choices on if we wanted to make things easier or harder for ourselves depending on if we wanted to challenge ourselves. I felt the start of this project was slow however that may have been due to me having a clear image of the scene in my head and not needing to plan and figure out the scene i=on paper. To make my render better i would like to have used better materials in Maya,maybe using substance painter to create photo-realistic textures. In any case creating a better consistency between materials would be better, especially considering that the stage on my scene appears to be in a different style to the other materials in the scene. In the future i will need to...
