Senior Portfolio Spring Week 3

Senior Portfolio Post 3

2/14/19

This week, I have continued experimenting with the mechs and characters from the previous week.  I have tried to create an animation merging the two styles.  The main focus is having them interact within the same environment, working together.  The character will hop into the mech, which will then power up and prepare for some sort of following action.  This was a test of constraints knowledge and knowing how to maneuver two sets of controls at the same time.  If all goes well, I plan to move forward with larger scenes with even more characters and such to keep track of.

For my other animation focus projects, I have continued blocking out animations for Advanced Production NPCs, and their different personalities.  I began work with the new custom character rigs being produced for the game.  A different personality was the focus of this week, and I have compiled a few blockouts.  These will be further tweaked as the rig is updated, and I have established a better idea of how the respective personalities will look later on.
