Week 05

3D Animatic

In the week5, I finished shot33-shot41. The Space dancing and swimming parts are the hardest performances in this short, Did one shot blocking each day is the best what I can do. About the shot 1-5 adjustment, I will do them after the first round animation blocking has been finished…

I met some problem in using characters’ controllers this week. In the space part, these characters need to move in a same speed, so their main controller should be covered together. After that, I tried to use the waist controller to move the character, rotate them. But the body will tie when the rotation angle of the waist exceeds 180 degrees. Like the picture shows.

After asking others, I begin to use the green arrow controller to move and rotate the character. The waist will never tie any more.

However, another problem happened in the same time. when I used the green arrow controller to move the character, the feet won’t follow the body movement. Then I learned to use the blue “+” around the waist, to turn off the IK skeleton and turn on the FK skeleton. Then the feet will follow the body movement when I turn on the FK skeleton.
