CPS WEEK7_Characters,Place and Events

Context

What builds a character? From my perspective of view, the figure of a character is given by its surroundings, such as environment, events. The appearance of the character is just a tool to assistant us get to know better about itself, but it is something external that determines who they are.

Method

I am trying to play with the special effect  function in maya and help me to get a better understanding what builds a character.

Response & Reflection

As we can see from the first experiment, there is a group of ball setting at he bottom of the slope. We can’t see any difference between each of them. But something reveals as another group of ball rolls down along the slope. All balls are pushed away except a special one, which doesn’t move at all.  The second is familiar, several balls roll down along the slope. There is a different ball that falls behind from the group during the process. Gradually, it separate itself from other balls.

When we build a character, their appearance is important to gain information from, but their behaviour and everything they do make who they are. So it is these events that help us to know the inside world of a character and depict a more real character to audiences.
