The final sequences Overall Reflection Overall, I think the animations turned out pretty well despite all the problems I had with the rendering stages of the animation. Unfortunately, I did not get the textures in time, due to problems with the viper rendering software, but I learned the importance of texturing the assets with the …
After I finished setting up the character it was time for me to start animating. Before I started to animated I created 3 separate projects for each animation sequence (this is to make sure that I do not have to delete all progress on one sequence to start another). However, I had to create a …
After finishing the base rig, I moved on to weight painting. Weight painting is a step in the rigging process that connects the bones to the 3D model. May allows me to select, add, smooth and replace influence on a joint in the paint skin weights tool. Value and opacity can be used to change …

I was creating the textures for the model and was having trouble applying them to Maya. However, after experimenting with the texture settings, I managed to …

Base Video (No extra effects) When I recorded the shots for my scene and gathered the suitable audio files, it was time to import them to my premier pro project. The first thing I did was select the parts of the obs recordings with the use of the mark in and out function (located in …
Camera Setup After I finished creating the environment/level, I moved to placing cameras in the positions that I mentioned in my camera mapping. To achieve some of these camera angles, I had to use the crane and rail actors that are in Unreal, as they allow for a smoother lifting/dropping and movement of the camera …

This is still a part of the pre-production process as I have not started filming the sequence with the camera yet.
