Camera move

We have started playing around with how the camera may move in the environment, as so that the 2D animation will work on it.

Characters

Dragonfly model for the film -> stage that we are up to

So far we have modelled the dragonfly and have applied a test rig on it to see how it moves. We still have to fix up the texture (we have assigned one to it to see how it would look, but now we have to go back and move the uv points around).

As well we just have to finish up on some paint weight... not too hard at all. Below are images of snapshots we took in Maya.

In addition, we have added some dynamics to the tail of the dragonfly, but can't show the video since we are still figuring out how to put vids onto the blog.

Before i 4get to mention, we are in the process of researching on how the dragonfly moves. so we are watching dragonfly vids in slow moooootiiiooon... ill post up the animation when it gets done.
