Modelling and Texturing
After I make the story, I design and model the characters, props, interior and exterior environment. All the design must suit the charaters’ age, identity and style. Then, I put proper and diversified texture for them to provide true sense of reality and create stunning atmosphere. I have done several different characters and buildings.
Storytelling
Although my university is famous for anmiation, storytelling is also another part of equal importance. We should pop up as many good ideas as possible in a short time and pitched them to class. After the reviews and critique, we continue to pick one and modify it continously.
I have produced serveral stories with different styles, comic, touching or fantastic.
Animating
Play is the key of the animation. To make a vivid short film, I should be immensed in the story and act as the character, play every scene and make reference, then animate pose-to-pose.
Visual Development
To improve my ability to provide better visual expression, I have done various practice such as mashup, brainstorm, character and environment design, etc.
Hope you like my work
