AGI workshop: Day 8

RATIONAL

Today I created the underwater lighting in my animation. I found that in order to make my animation more attractive, I need to use various lights in the scene. In addition, I did another animation test of jellyfish. While making the animation, I encountered some problems during the production process. Some problems I feel I can’t solve in a short time. Then I simplified design of the jellyfish. I feel that simplifying the design will not affect the overall atmosphere I want to express.

CONTEXT

Here are some of the animation references and tutorials I used in my animation:

METHOD

I did a new animation test to figure out the issues I need to solve. This test animation gave me a deeper understanding of the overall atmosphere of my project.

OUTCOMES

The next things I need to do is:

Build more models of underwater creatures and animated them. For instance, corals, seaweeds and starfish etc.

Find background music that matches the picture.

Add more jellyfish to the animation and think about their movement.

Make the background of animation: dynamic starry sky.
