 Minor Project For minor we had to select one of the given projects and join a group to work on it throughout the semester. After thinking a lot I joined Healthify because I was interested in seeing the design process of a fitness app since I use fitness apps myself.

Film Studies & Cinematography - Project 3 - Animation Since I didn't do FSC during the semester I did Animation Fundamentals, I had to redo the animation. Mr. Martin urged me to try out Rotoscoping as it reflected my strengths better since I did video and photos. I'm glad I listened to his advise and took his approach because I learnt a lot and really enjoyed working on this. I did frame by frame animation so it took a while but I'm really happy with the out come. Figure 1 - Adobe Animate Process Figure 1 - ESCAPE - Animation Short

 Project 3 - Post Production After I got feedback on project 2, I went ahead and made changes to the scenes accordingly. I changed up the lights and added flicker to some of them. I also added a hat to the skeleton and cleaned up most of the animations. I added a green screen tot he monitor screen and added a static screen to it in after effects for the final touch. I got the static video from YouTube. Figure 1 - how the green screen was added Figure 1 - Project 3

Advanced Animation - Project 2 - Production

 Project 2 - Production After Animatics and acting was done, we moved onto setting up the set in MAYA. I used a rig for my character called Jasmine Rose by Ahmed Shalaby. I first imported my Acting into Adobe animate and listed out how many frames each scenes used and blocked it out in MAYA. I made set before I did this. Figure 1 - Animation Blocking After I blocked out the scenes I started animating scene by scene. After animating the scenes I added rough lighting to see what it would look like in the final render. I rendered the scenes in this lighting for feedback. Figure 2 - Project 2
