Taking a break from motion graphics, my next project is an animation and a collaboration with Elena Stojanova, an artist and a very intelligent person whose taste and sensibilities I respect. We are working towards more of a proof of concept rather than a final animation, which is to say we are developing a pipeline and getting a feel for the pre-production process for an animation. We expect a couple seconds of animation that looks and feels professional. After brainstorming with Elena, she quickly sketched out the concept art for our characters. Since we have decided on 3D as the media for our animation, the next task lays with modeling the characters.
I will give myself a deadline of a week to have these characters modeled. Which is approximately next Monday (November 1). I will post whatever results a week from now. The key to staying productive is to give yourself a deadline. So in 1 week, the modeling will be complete.
Stay warm everyone!
