Design Research Methodology - Proposal

 Proposal

Week 1

This week was a brief on the module, and we had to select a topic according to our specialization. Since mine was animation I went through a few books I found on Google Scholar and selected the topic: Effect of animation and art style on the audience. I made a proposal draft as shown on class today

Week 2

Today was a public holiday but we were to keep working on the proposal.

Week 3

I got feedback and was told my topic was too broad, and to narrow it down more. The lecturer recommended to focus on just art style and a certain type of animated media. So I selected the topic : Art style of Studio Ghibli.

Week 4

My topic was still too broad as per feedback, and my problem statement was not correct. I was also told to read articles instead of books. So I read some articles and changed the topic to : Art style of Studio Ghibli's Spirited Away. I also corrected the problem statement after going through the lecture video again.

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
