The Alarm Clock

This animation was part of an inanimate object assessment, in which we had to model, rig, light and animate an inanimate object and show it doing basic character movements.

Overall I feel that I did rather well with this task considering the time we were given to fully complete the animation.  The rig of the character is quite basic, however I spent quite a bit of time on the weight paints and afterwards, I believe that I grasped a huge knowledge of this tool that I can use in the future.

I took a "cartoony" approach with this character although I tried to keep the movements rooted to a human style.

Abstract Animation

For this project I was to select a sound clip from a varied selection and create a short animation around the sound.  I decided to choose this sound over the others as I liked the techno-style beats and the sound itself is extremely abstract. 

The assignment was to explore the use of colour, movement and sound.

I wanted to experiment and explore the use of colour changes and glow within the scene.

I used a basic, plain wall texture in order to let the colours blend together and bleed onto the wall.

Overall I feel like this assignment turned out rather well as the final outcome is how I had imagined it to look from the beginning.
