TThis week I did a deep dive into the butterfly and moth characters, managing to complete models, textures and rigs for both.
Now that all the characters appearing in the film are modeled, textured and rigged, I am able to shift my focus to rough animation and environment modeling.
I studied the movement of butterflies and moths this week, and was able to begin blocking animation.
Finally, I began to ideate on the design of the living room environment, which will be my next environment project. I want to make sure the environment is full of signs of life. I created a rough sketch of how I thought the space might be laid out:
I decided to unwrap and retexture a piano I had modeled my sophomore year based on the piano I played as a kid. I gave it a dark wooden frame to make it fit better into Rose's world. I am excited to push the shape of this prop with deformers for the final environment.
