This is the last module we are to be briefed on this year and we pretty much have free reign of what we want to do, anything that we have an interest in or something that will help us become more specialised. I've known for a long time that I want to be an animator and recently I've been developing on character animation, for this module I want to keep pushing this and improving on performance and lip sync.
In order for me to be able to push it as far as I can I'm wanting to use pre-made rigs that will have the control and flexibility that I need. They are readily available for animators to use and are some are close to what you could expect in industry, so this too would give me good practice. My main focus will be the animation, however I will still need to write up a script that I have adapted from a short story or fable. I'm choosing a pre existing story because I can then try and adapt if for animation and give it some more performance. Along with the script, the storyboards and animatics need to be done with the voice recordings in order for me to plan out the timings. As I am using pre-made rigs I need to model the environment but I plan to keep this simple and not over complicate things.
It's going to be challenging to get this all completed within 4 weeks but we'll see where it takes me and hopefully I can get what I want out of this module. Performance is the main thing I want to push so when it comes to reference videos I will be referring to my storyboards, as an actor would, to know what actions to push for.
