Animation, Games and Interactivity - Studio 2 - Week 9 work - Samridhi Handa

This week, I have worked on the shots and camera movements for my animation. I have rendered some small and basic renders just to see how everything is going to look. These tests are just experiments that I did in order to see how the things look and feel and how I need to manage the shots, movements and pacing. These test renders and animations are not in the order in which they need to be. These are just simply movement tests and a proof of concept.

I have also started working towards the abstract and the possible inquiry. My possible direction for the inquiry is co-existance of humans and technology in the future world. I am also working on the research and I have consulted with my mentors to seek guidance regarding the inquiry. I have also started doing some research and readings to refine my thoughts.

I have written a few lines for the abstract just to have a starting point which I am going to refine further. These lines are not yet specific or in the proper order. I am also working on the context and about other practioners in the field. The inquiry would be refined and worked upon in the coming weeks. The few lines that I have written for the abstract are as follows:

Abstract

Possible Inquiry: Dependence of Humans on Technology/Co-existance of humans and technology

Abstract: FC2100 (Future City 2100) is a 3d animation work set in a futuristic world which focuses on tech dependency and co-existence of humans and technology in a futuristic era. This animation aims to portray how the futuristic world would look like when humans and technology live together and when humans are highly dependent on technology. This animation has been created using Autodesk Maya. I have worked on this project in order to describe a futuristic world where technology engulfs humans.
