Week 14: Advanced Body Mechanics Finishing touches
This week’s class content is to finalize this stage of the project and provide the final feedback. George gave me very detailed feedback and provided me with very clear improvement methods for my animation, which helped me better complete this animation project.
Feedback: Changing the rotation of toes and hand movements to a red line marked posture would be more appropriateFeedback: It would be better to add a position marked with the red line between the front and back movements of the body as shownFeedback: Changing the body posture to a position marked with a red line would be betterFeedback: Some rotations in the shoulder position, such as the red line marking, would be betterFeedback: Change the position of receiving the gun to the action marked with the red line, making the action more strengthFeedback: The legs should be changed to straight to make the movements more powerfulFeedback: The body should be tilted slightly to make the movement more consistentFeedback: the waist should be bent as shown in the red markings to make the movement more realisticFeedback: The arm posture should be bent as shown in the red mark in the figure, making the movement more realisticFeedback: The arm posture should be bent as shown in the red mark in the figureFeedback: The body should be pressed down in a turning position, as shown in the red markings in the figure, to make the movements more realisticFeedback: The body should be pressed down in a turning position, as shown in the red markings in the figure, to make the movements more realisticFeedback: The body should be pressed down in a turning position, as shown in the red markings in the figure, to make the movements more realisticFeedback: The right toe should be raised, as shown in the red mark in the picture, to make the action more realisticFeedback: The body rotation and arm posture have been changed to the red markings in the figure, making the movements more natural and smoothFeedback: add a pose to the body movement as marked in red in the picture to make the movement look more natural and smoothFeedback: This action maintains 2 frames of timeFeedback: Change the final posture to the action marked in red as shown in the picture
George gave me very responsible feedback, which was very clear and helpful, which led me to understand George’s feedback well and make modifications to my own animation with clear thinking, so that I was able to complete this animation project well.
Reflection:
During the weekly learning and feedback process, George always emphasized the importance of timing and the accuracy and rationality of posture. Reference videos are also very important and have reference significance. Animation is about getting better and better through feedback and modifications, ultimately making it smoother and more natural.
Part of Project 2
This week is the beginning of my project 2 scene production. Firstly, I created the sky, ground, lighting system and post process global settingsin UE5, to created my scene with a general layout.
Then I learned how to use the Foliage mode and use a plant brush to generate the plants I want on the ground.
Then learn how to use the shaders in ue5 and turn on the effect of wind, so that plants can be moved by the wind
Summary of this week: This week, I learned how to create a sky atmosphere environment and post process global settings, which is a great breakthrough for beginner. And learned how to make plants and shaders, and create special effects where plants sway in the wind.
