Intro Time!

Since Im figuring out what I want to do for Work Based Learning, my plan says that I need to figure out when, what and why! so instead im making a intro, one better than my others in my mind anyway, just need to finish it off with colours and with loads of new stuff im learning on after effects.

Using lighting as the blur on the outer, and a few vibrate tags as a motion, giving i more of a clock work feel. the cloud shape in the middle grows and fades, but that may change in further productions.

spitfire update

Since i've been doing this plane thing to pass time its now become a full side project! just to get me some more experience!

Imagine more colour, more realistic and better plane dynamics!
Since im going to make it about 30 second long, im thinking of putting more than a few planes in have a small fight scene and a mountain range... just as a pass the time big me up type thing! might take a while since im rendering on my poor little mac but who knows.... could be fun!

plane add on

Well I wanted to do something different with my Plane models, so using one of my old designs of a spitfire like plane, placing it on a aircraft carrier in the Arctic, placing mountains in the background, a runway on the ship, and multiple camera for all direct use!
soon to render!
heres what it looks like so far

stealth fighter 3D model

Well after a night of rendering and boredom strikes, looking at MacMave on youtube, his video inspired me at the start.
here is my version with intense music over the top, if you dont like it. Critique!
Tell me what you would prefer :)
hope you enjoy

Sidetracked

Once again I got side tracked! I saw a video on youtube of a dogfight (planes) and I thought... i've got models of planes, so why not, just rendering off now as I type this! its going to have sound and a few overlays from After Effects. Using a preset of a cloud layer from Idigital studios, freebie image!
but so far, this is what it look lik in cinema 4d

Powers low, will he work!

Well for now this is just a trial, but the robot thing is going well, using textures to get things to since is so fun!

He is just about to wake up and his power is short, what will he do!

Work for people!

Well since hand in, Ive been stress free! hahahaha oh hell no I haven't. interview today, not a bad day got through it unharmed so I cant complain!

Anyway back to 3D been doing work with liam on my course. A robot character, hes a little guy who hasn't been finished, the factory he was built in was shut down half way through his production so he never got finished, the factory is now abandoned! he is all alone and he wants to escape, he has enough power for one try!  Who knows this could be a future project!

Live Brief Final File!

Well since I finished the live brief  all thats left is the writing up.. kinda anyway, I might do another live brief and continue getting more work experience!

This is the final work file that I have given to the client! rendered off at 1920-1080 so good enough for TV.

Update!

Well the live brief went well, I'm giving the final piece on monday!


And back to the massive project!!!!! kill me now, i'd like to say, its been great but damn. Ive got to the 4th scene, but still have not rendered off a final file... which i really need to do before end of next week, just so I have the right sounds and everything! wow its cutting it close.
also I found out today I have a essay that needs to bee in soon. wow I am going to have to buckle down major like when I was off during the summer and xmas!
but yeah back to the major project.
Scene 1 - the train station and ticket sequence, all complete just need to render.
Scene 2 - the tubing, camera work needs to be sorted and corrected but almost there.
Scene 3 - The grinder that was weirdly a success which I honestly didn't have much faith in but then again I never listen to my self!
Scene 3.5 - the secondary camera works fine the motion is a little off but that is working so far
Scene 4 - another short of Tubing, camera still needs work but almsot there and then coming out the top of a fountain.
scene 5 - Coming out of the fountain... Meeting the character, since im a little short of time, im only having him sitting in his rocking chair sleeping, and then waking up slightly to say hi to the camera! and of course with his little pet ladybirds! camera and actions still need work but almost there!
Scene 6 - well I haven't even started that! so Ill keep you informed on how that will go later


Thanks for reading my rant

so heres a picture of my random tracer ident

well its finished...

No not my actual work, but my little minion... a few hour gone and I finished him, well kinda, the top ones have hair and buttons while the bottom ones dont have any, you choose which you like most!

Hope you enjoy

Well, since it is STILLL rendering

Well as I said, rendering takes so long, i've had to give it to my tutor to render off on his magnificent PC!
So Before I gave it to him, I quickly changed a few textures and gave it more of a old dingy look, so hopefully the whole scene will be looking realistic.

My Ticket! and the Machine!!

Well since i had the ticket machine and the subway I needed the ticket its self! so here it is and the ticket machine!

Waiting... Waiting

Well waiting for a test to finish rendering I figured I like disney so how do you make the lamp! its so cute and its something new, plus I haven't really been using Joints in things besides my Mechanical claw but hen again that was a while back!
so yes its only a primitive image so far, but soon I will upload a video of the file, might take a while though.

In the middle of rigging the lamp to move, but it just looks too wrong.. so here comes the attempts!

Cant believe im still here

Well its been a week or so, but this is just an update on my first scene... yup my first scene still on that. but its getting there, soon hopefully!

The arrow is the opening scene as you walk down the stairs.

And this is the down stairs, how the platform looks. few old cans and cups lying around, mucky walls and big posters on the walls. the ticket machine is just to the left in the bright orange textures.
Hope you like
