Final Project

Storyboard

My Character's Poses (In Sequence)






My Character's Animation

In this final project, it's an animation of 2 characters interacting through actions and dialogues. Although the animation must be at least 10 secs, it is not that easy to do. I need to do the key poses / blocking before I could animate the character. One of the problems that I faced while doing this project was that I did not really know how to use the graph editor to smooth the animation. But I managed to figure it out myself by using the move tool to adjust the gradient of the graph and select the particular timeline that I want to edit. Another problem I had faced was how I should do the key poses. It is quite tough to think of a good key pose just for the character. The audience must be able to tell what the animation is trying to portray. But overall, this project requires time and effort and at the same time, it can be interesting if the animation is good.
