AGI Workshop: Day 2

Rationale:

After the feedback, I changed my idea from CG VFX to abstract VFX because CG VFX is commonly used in films and it doesn’t make my works stand out. My idea for this workshop is to stick to exploring why I would like to do something.

I will use Abstract VFX and simple objects to explore materialism and textures with everyday objects. I will try to explore everyday objects and how I can replace that with an unexpected object with a different texture with different properties. I thought about how can I explore an object to another extent than it’s natural properties?

I want to show my skills as a VFX artist and as well as explore objects that can be unique than its properties. 

Context:

Alex Mcleod

Method:

These are some of the small animation scenarios I came up with.
1) Spray that has liquid inside but would spray out cubes instead.

2) Egg crack but inside it’s not liquidy, but instead, the yolk is a golden sphere and the whites are a silver disk.

3) Glass able to bend, Glass easily shown being crunched by hand.

4) Paint spill. The spill is a hairy rug type of texture that is being spilled.

I will look at tutorials on how to create simple effects such as liquid, blobby sphere with simple objects and experiment with materials and textures.

Outcome:

4 Thumbnails or small animation scenarios. Mostly be a continuing/looping gif. Spray continues to spray cubes, glass continues to being bent, paint spill continues to spill and egg crack loops.
