Body Rigging: Part 2- Spine

The rigged spine for the maya character, however without the feet and legs rigging as I have yet to fix the issue I am having with that.

Narrative: CD & Case Designs

In preparation for our crit I've been working on our CD and case artwork. I tried to keep it simple and symbolic just like how our animation is itself while keeping it professional and linked to our animation and art direction at the same time.

Little Boy Fully Rigged and Ready to Animate!

Over at Pigment Studios Tthis little boy has caused us a couple of problems which has delayed him getting finished especially over the last couple of days but we've finally got there and it was definitely worth battling through! :)

Here are a few images showing the final character with his range of costume changes.

As his typical 1940s self. However, the outfit will be textured differently so that we can also use it for the 1950s outfit.

 

These are the extra outfit components that we have skinned after fully rigging and connected through visibility attributes on the main character control. The 1940s boy's pyjamas and the 1950s hair.

 

Finally a shot of the base character minus the components that change. Also showing the skinned skeleton more clearly.



@ Phil- Postmodernism Introduction & Structure

Hi Phil I was just wondering if you could check this essay plan and introduction over for me to make sure I am on the right tracks and that my structure does narrow down gradually to focus on a small thing.
I'm also not sure about the order of the first and second paragraphs. Is it better to introduce the film in a short paragraph before introducing postmodernism as a whole or the other way round?

Thanks! :)
