Animation & Kinetics

Here are more sample of motion capture using my 3d model






After testing the model with many BIP files, I know that the model can pretty much use most of the motion files

Visual Studies

Here my chosen location is Manchester China Town, because of the night lights there and the culture they have there. One of the idea is influenced by video games, in the animation "The Pixel" they had video game characters invading the city, this is purely based on my personal interest and would like to see what it would look like for my favourite characters to appear in a real location
second idea is the chinese ink style, I want to create a 3d animation with 2d ink style effect to reflect the chinese culture. A few artist is influenced by this and are used in a few games/animation. I think this could be done in 3d with cell shaded skin in a ink style.




Digital Culture - 200 word and storyboard of a city


Long ago, this place was a small fishing village, for generations the Li family has been making boats as carprenters. This village grew into a small town over the years with many overseas visitors selling and trading goods. Their business was very successful for generations and they’re very well known throughout the town. Decades later, the town evolved into a large city and they are a well known company by then.
As the Li family thought that their happy lives would last forever, one day their city was invaded by the Japanese Military, killing, slaughtering and destroying their homes. By then the Li’s have lost everything they had for generations.
Under hopelessness and despair, miracle has cast upon them, The British Army fought off the Japanese Military bringing peace to the city once again.
Now today, the city is crowded with people, skyscrapers are everywhere, a city that never sleeps.
The Li family may have lost their business but they have not lost their spirit as carprenters they were once to be, now they are rebuilding their company making ships that set sails around the world seeking for their ultimate goal.
