This week I do the Progress presentation to the class. I showed the storyboard animation to the class. Herman said the timing looks good. And it’s good for keep on animating.
Also, Yuanhang give me the advise that the horror occurs because the information of the viewer and the producer is not equal. I believe it does make sense and that is the thing I also want to try in my scene.
For my project, I plan to rendered into eight separate shot so that the curve in graph editor won’t interference other part of the animation.
First shot
For the first shot, it’s the walking to the hotel door. I keyed the focus distance on the character to get the vagueness feeling of other space. Also, I applied a shaking effect with zoom in to the camera to build the sense of walking.
For the character, I polished the graph editor to smooth the bumping.
So, I have my first 34 frame so far. But when I goes to render, I found my GTX1060 need 5 minute to render a 1080p with 9 samples in Arnold. And the cpu temperature is above 100 degrees Celsius. So, I want to copy it to the school to use school computer. But I found I didn’t set the project file. That means all the material will lost their path to find the model. Therefore, the only way for me is to render the animation on my computer. So, I rendered the whole shot under 4 to 9 samples which feels not so good.
Some final rendered shot
