Scenes are done and the animation process has begun. the first scenes will be rendered soon and a video will be posted

in my project there are several scenes that need to be made. I have made most of them including the outside and inside of the boat where the inventor studies his work.

I haven’t been posting to blog but that doesn’t mean I haven’t been working. I will be posting updates of what has happened chronologically so although this work didn’t all happen on the day I posted it everyone can see what I have done

for my first thesis I am thinking of doing a cyberpunk fantasy-es world when people make machines and fear magic. the main character of this adventure is a inventor who is on a quest to find a magic potion that will cure his sister of some disease with no known cure. (lets call it cancer) while flying on his way to a magical phenomenon he is surprised by a huge magical storm that completely destroys his ship and the crew he is with. he survives with an invention he makes and finds himself stranded in the middle of the desert. lost with nowhere to go he struggles to the magical phenomenon witch turns out to be the fountain of youth. this is found as an oasis in the middle of the desert. once he grabs the liquid he tries to make contact with his sister which he finds that she has already died.

The main emphasis of the animation is to focus on the movement of the character and the special effects within the animation by the use of particle effects and lighting of Maya and after effects. obviously the main idea of the animation is not the storyline but I hope that I can get the animation to a point where it feels real enough and can get the watchers to feel sad.

These are websites that did interviews with 3D modelers in the field that I would like to work in. in these interviews they talked about how they drew inspiration and how they had to take casual breaks every once in a while and work on multiple projects at a time.

I can relate to what they are saying as I follow the same system when I am making things in maya.

I am Just’n Firestine and I am a 3D modeler and animator. The things that inspire me would be learning to do cool new things in maya or any other program where I can create. when working on maya I get very into my work to the point where I lose track of time and sometimes forget to eat. recently I have been very happy about some art I did for the advanced 3d modeling. I used zbrush to make a convincing human which made me absolutely happy because I may not be the best drawer but when I created a highly detailed person in zbrush that was better than any drawing I have ever done I knew I was on the right path.my art plan normally goes a little odd. I have everything planned out ahead of time but it changes so much on the way to the end goal I always end up not liking the earlier ideas as the creator or product expands itself as I would on it. I also never really storyboard or when I do, I don’t stick to them because the animation process goes the same way where the additions I make to my own project changes the project for the better. I dream to work in a video game industry and hope that one day I will work for a company like riot or blizzard. at this moment I think I have what it takes to work at the job companies but I need more work to show off before I can actually start to apply myself.
