Intro
In this unit we had a choice to make 1 minute animation based on the two audio file that was on RSA's website. Since this task was a group work, I have decided to work with Lukas based on the previous work we have done. Can I faith in him to finish the work on time and in good quality.
BRIEF from RSA (royal society of arts)
RSA wanted us to produce an animation to accompany one of the two audio's given. We have compared/analysed the two audio files and also keeping in mind about how can we can produce the final product. By highlighting the key words, it helps us as a group to keep focused on what we need to create. The keyword will help us when animating, we will know what to animate to.
As a group we have highlighted the important words, so we can draw storyboard from that and show it in animation. From the brainstorm, we have done we came up with what we are going to have in the animation.
Ideas:
- How technology is taking over on what we do
- Send monkey to a different planet and see how it reacts
- Make a bulling campaign
We have asked around on what idea everyone likes. And everyone likes the idea of an ape reacting to its environment. The message we want to get across is to take risks and not be shy.

Different way to tell a story

I will use this video as a reference, I really like how the monkey reacts to what's happening in the environment.
I have created this moldboard to look at what I will be modeling in Maya. And also look at what are the types of monkeys are there visually.
Here is a video with the process. Throughout the modeling of the ape I have taken screenshots of my process which Is in the this video above.
I have done some drawing on the ape in action. I have explored some poses that the ape can use.
In this brainstorm I have looked at different ways of telling a story. Out if this brainstorm I will explore two different ways of telling a story 3D animation and Comic which I have circled on the brainstorm. I have 3D animation because I have done 3D animation in the past and 3D is the strongest part of my skill. I have chosen to explore comic because I think it's a good visual way to tell a story.
Comic's
I think comic is the best way a good way to show story visually.
POP ART
Pop art is a art movement started in mid 1950s. These are the two artists are well known for pop art.
I really like how the artists used bright colours and outline which make gives a 2D feel to it. From this I think I can implement some style to my work.
My Visulation
I was inspired by Roy Lichtenstein to create this art. I might make my 3D model like this. I will add it as a texture to it.
This Is an That I have drawn using my tablet. My first time using it to add colours to my drawings.
This is the outcome of what I have created.
Landscape artists
Heart of the Andes by Frederic Edwin Church
This something I have drawn with crayons. I have drawn the spaceship most unusual pace to give it a different feel. You don't expect the spaceship to be there.
This what it looks like after adding tress and grass. I have also created the textures on the ground. For the water instead of using Maya's water features i have used a texture, because it takes far too long to render.
I was inspired by Van Gogh's painting The Starry Night, to make my background like that.
Texture's
All the textures that was used in this project was created by me. I have vu mapped where the textures will go and then creating textures based on that.
