animation test

5 43 am

so here is latest updates, i have been screwed by animation test given to me by backbone entertaiment,  acrtually they screw up so in end i screwed up, story is liek this, they gave me 5 days to do animation test so they watned me install plug in for maya, to generate character rigs, but the plug in is fail therefore delay my test, next they asked me to use andy rig for my test, that test is walk cycle, run cycle, weight lift and acting with dialogue.

the person that give me this test is come from institution that is opposite of my interest, majoring in industrial design not from animation background. anyway screw it, i kena finish run cycle today then i can continue to weight lifting, i got 1 goal rite now, finished everything by monday and refine on monday so I can submit by monday around like 3 or 4 pm.

2 56 pm

i decided to go back to this project i did for my final sem tat time at nz, i modelled and animated a ninja sneak walk in this scene. here i am posting work in progress, it's a small japanese house and i didn't focus too much on model tat time, after looking at ti now i decided i will improve more on how the house will look.



layout the lighting, some texture and uv texture


added more stuff for the roof because i feel it lacking more architecture structure



added more stuff to the background, but i thinking now it kinda looks sucks so maybe i will take it away, now i think its time to uv unwrap again haih.

today morning typing this shitz blog and thinkign wat to share, hm okei i got interview with architecture render company at 3 pm later today and then i will sharing some previous works i have. diu i spend too much time refine works ady.

sorry for arrangement yah, this stupid blog go and screw it up for me diu hai




this is interior render of a studio, i modelled texture and render it, this is wip no.2 i adjust the  lighting becuase it was too dark and flat, too much shadow so i change the color the walls.



this is wip 03 for the interior render, i adjusted the bounce light more because the ceiling are too dark and not enough illuminations,, adjusted the blur of the shadow line and re arrange some of the layout for the interior studio, so now the studio looking abit better than previous shot.



this was the 1st wip for the interior studio, okei the 1st render shot which major problems, simple layout arrangement and lighting also not rite, so i made small changes and render the shot again, decide the time of the day and calculate bounce lights and shadow line. the room is too flat.
