Final Project / Physical Animation


LECTURES

Week 9:

We learned about secondary action this week. For example, if a character jumps, they will bounce a little before and after the jump. Another example is when we are knocking on a door, if the other hand curls up and the shoulder raises it gives a sneaky impression. 


Week 10:

In week 10 we are briefed to compile all of the principles learned throughout the semester and apply it to the final project which is creating a 10-second physical action.


INSTRUCTION


Final Project | Physical Action

We need to build a 10-second physical animation for the final result. I started looking for inspiration after deciding on the horror genre for both the animation fundamentals and film and cinematography modules. I then recall taking a "Kayang" test in high school, which required us to walk with our heads upside down. I recall seeing some horror movies where the actress did "kayang", therefore I attempted animating it in Procreate.



Fig 1.0 Animation Sketch


I created the animation based on the progress from the assignments from both modules which is Animation Fundamental and Film Studies and Cinematography. I did not create the rough animation sketch to save time because I was rushing with the other assignment but I do like how it turns out. I added the head twisting to give it more of a horror feel to it. I then proceed to color it.



Fig 1.1 Final Physical Animation


I asked Mr. Kamal if sound effects are necessary and he said it's a plus point if we add it so I did. Overall I like how it turns out and it really challenges my skill to draw movement since I mostly only draw illustrations. I enjoyed doing the final project for both Animation Fundamental and Film and Studies Cinematography and will definitely improve in future modules for animations.

September 27, 2024 -  / (Week 1 - 14) Anandya Dewi Saputra / 0354651 Bachelor of Design (Hons)in Creative Media / Taylor's University Design Research Dissertation / Task 1 (Draft Dissertation) INSTRUCTIONS For this part of the project, we are given the task of writing a literature review from 5 articles that link to our research. On top of that, we have to make a literature matrix to create the subheading of our research. We have to check if the article is written by scholars. This methodology section is supposed to explain the research approach, justification, and purpose behind it with appropriate citations. To conclude the review, think about the major trends and the main contributors. How are there gaps in the literature and whether the review should continue and be updated or are you satisfied that any further research would need to take a completely different approach. It is also mandatory to show our progression weekly to our lecturer. Literature Review Matrix At the start o...
