After completing my Goober model it was time to move onto Arthur, I wanted to challenge myself to create my first male full body character because the majority of my characters are quite cutesy or have much smaller, rounder body types like Goober. The idea was to create a father figure type to juxtapose Goober’s… Continue reading Arthur – Character Design to 3D Model

This was one of the segments during the process of creating Come Home that I enjoyed the most despite the short time frame we had to get everything completed. I actually think the stress of wanting to get everything done in time was the main force for my improvement through each render that I went… Continue reading Hardware Rendering and Post Production

Working during the Coronavirus did come with its challenges, particularly when working in a team with such an ambitious film, we weren’t expecting to have to work at home for the entirety of our project but we made do with what we had and tried our best to get ourselves organised online. Yazz had made… Continue reading Working in Lockdown and Reflection

It was strange not being able to go up and present our work together as a class physically but nevertheless the presentations were extremely informative and it was great to see everyone’s work! We had received some very positive feedback from our lecturers and I was quite pleased with the reaction to our animations, it… Continue reading Final Presentation

With this challenge, it was also important to set limitations like keeping the two in a car so the task… Continue reading Animation for Come Home

Mainly dwelling on the screaming scene where Arthur and Goober first meet… Continue reading Goober – Character Design to 3D Model

First off we created a section in our group Pinterest board for background inspiration and a lot of the images we chose had a very similar vibe, something distant and quite nostalgic which is something I wanted to replicate. One artist that inspired me particularly was the works of Irish artist Gavin O Donell and… Continue reading Background Development from Concept to Render

With the Pitch presentation out of the way, it was time to regroup and create an animatic based upon our storyboards and Yazz’s amazing script! We had to make some story changes due to our previous feedback, so after class, we pulled up a whiteboard and began separating our story into a beginning, middle and… Continue reading Second Presentation and Animatic

Inspiration The entire idea of our final year film was influenced by the concept that there is nothing more intimate than two people having an emotional conversation without looking at each other. This then led to the plot of this film that is centred around two characters in a car, talking through their issues and… Continue reading Inspiration, Storyboarding and Pitch Presentation
