Homework for monday!
Complete your animation assignment for monday! Remember that the prompt of your assignment is the following:
Using a simple 3D shape, create a short animation where that object emotes.
Things to remember:
You want to think in terms of the following: “How do I want my audience to feel about my character? What emotion is my character trying to convey. How do I communicate my intention? How does my story end, and how do I resolve my story!”
Additional parameters:
You are allowed to create a simple floor, or walls if you character needs them, but please: NO ELABORATE SETS, NO MAJOR CHARACTER ADDITIONS (extra characters, huge unnecessary backstories, props, etc.)
Figure out what your Key Drawings are, and write down an estimation of how long you think each major drawing will last on screen. As we move forward, you are going to learn more about timing as you work!
If you have any questions about your assignment, email me at mshaw@mca.edu!
