Project 6: Character Animation

Storyboard:

Frames:

1. Here we see the character swinging his arms back to gain momentum before he kicks the ball

2. This is the character with his arms raised after kicking the ball trying to get the crowd to cheer for him

3. This is an image of the ball hitting the trash cans and they topple over (done by dynamics)

Final Animation:

Note:

Changes we made after the presentation include:

- Added lighting and shadows

- Added camera movements to better show the views depicted in the storyboard

- Changed hypershades

We tried to render, instead of playblast, the animation however Maya wouldn't respond and kept on crashing.

We tried to remove the green and white highlighted frames, but couldn't find any documentation online and after trying to fix it on our own, we could not figure out why it was happening.
