AGI Studio 1 - Week 5 - Weekly Work

For the weekly exercise, I wanted to delve into other elements used within the 3D loops such as conveyor belts and also the simulation of soft bodies (which has caused me many problems hehe). The feeling I wanted to convey is hope, since at this moment, although the overall picture is a bit dark for all of us due to the different fears regarding our health and economic issues, we must never lose hope.

Before doing the animation, I did a few tests with figures like a heart, which pose a great challenge in terms of computational power. In addition, the behavior of soft bodies sometimes turns out to be unpredictable and undergoes variations.

In the end, due to the complexity of simulating belts like soft bodies, I decided not to opt for a simulation and encouraged all keyframe elements by keyframe. Upon reaching the platforms, the letters are inflated to make up the word, using the property of "Stiffness" to allow the letters to inflate and have a balloon-like behavior.
