30 second Product Advert

Well I don’t have a problem think of ideas, however when getting the idea to the final product; this is another story. My final piece still relies on the original idea but has gone about changes these changes were due to the feed back in the midway presentation. I decided to make the idea less complex, for instance I was original going to model the man in the scene to look very realistic this would have taken longer to model so I made the model a lot easier almost a morph type but not meant intentionally. I enjoy creating the models and rigging them with bones etc the scenes lighting the camera these elements I find simple in comparison to making the model move. I have a real problem with walking I tried 8 times to make the model using the Hoover look real this would be the element I need real work on to improve my animations.
The rest of the scene I feel is a lot better than my last project I down sized on lighting effect, I intentionally did not use wall therefore all focus is upon the props i.e. the rug sofa and two wardrobes.
I used five cameras in this animation which made it a lot easier to edit as they gave me to play with I also feel it makes the film more exciting when the film switches and doesn’t stay transfixed upon the man from a far off position.

All in all I feel I have learnt some valuable skills those being how to build a skeleton under my character which made controlling a lot easier also that less is more and when it came to it I think it worked.
