Creature 3 Description and Reseach

Creature 3 Description and Research

Creature 3 is tall and stands in the river most its life, it stays safe win the water away from most predictors and as such has adapted to the water. The animal does breathe air and lives of a diet of mainly fish and other aquatic animals in the river. its legs are thick to stand against the current developing barbs and cones to help it move through the water. To move the limbs the body is large and strong to overcome the drag of the water. The creature used its large form and decorative head to create areas of shadow in the water, to lure the fish into its sight by making them think its under cover, before using its arrow like beak and head to spear into the water to catch the fish.

Major Editing

Major Editing The process of editing the clips together was simple, as the timing wasn't overly important for comedic or dramatic purposes. The editing was a chance to push the found footage aesthetic while organising them in some sort of order, overall the visual and audios where finalised and set up ready to be presented.

Major Creature 9 Reflection

Major Creature 9 Reflection Reflection: Working on Creature 9 was the fastest and easiest creature to make. After many attempts of trial an improvement, I have ended with a pipeline for the creation that doesn't run into any problems. Even so this creature was the easiest as I didn't need to add extra details to me normal maps through Zbrush because of the distance and setting of seeing this creature. After 4 successful creature rigs I am know confident in my ability to create characters and creatures for 3D. This is a subject I was unsure about for a long time and as such approached with apprehension and respect to the difficulty. I Think this was a good thing in the end as my research of detailed approach to the process made me gaining confidence a slow and steady process ending with confidence in my ability.

Tool Kit 2: Physical Sky

Tool Kit 2: Physical Sky In this tutorial I learnt about the physical sky in Arnold and how it can be used to easily mimic time of day when rendering exterior shots for animations. Using a variation of elevation, Turbidity, intensity and Azimuth you can create the different angles of sky light you would see in real life. Other settings that can be used to push a stylistic approach include sun tint, sky tint and sun size. These can be used to create strange effects that are stylised and aren't meant to look photo real. Day1. Mid Day. Morning/Evening. Foggy Day. Stylised Lighting.
