Lip Sync Research - Part 1

I have found these three different movie quotes for my lip sync character animation study. I feel that I could have a lot of fun with all of these quotes and show a lot of energy with the body acting.

Mr Woodcock - I'm and Alcoholic, not a Barbie doll.

Body Animation Rough Outline

I have created a very rough character poses to go with my Anchorman quote, I tried to push the line of action as much as I could for the "Hey Everyone" line. I think with the inbetweens these poses could work really well together. 

Character Body Acting Animation

I have chosen a quote from Anchorman 1, to create my body acting animation.

Maya Project Lip Sync

For my Maya Project I used the quote "Show Me The Money" - Jerry Maguire (1996)

Maya Walk Cycle

My walk cycle created in maya, I does look slightly robotic however for my first attempt I am very happy with the final outcome.

Final Sting (with sound) - Brooke Hayes

My final first year sting. I am pleased with how my final animation turned out as I struggled to begin with but after overcoming various problems such as the running through the house scene was difficult due to so many moving aspects at once and given more time I would have liked to add more objects for the Imp to destroy in the house Scene.

Animation Development 8

Some slight changes that I have made to my animation, to sort out the continuity errors that I had made. I have also added shadows underneath my characters to fix them to the floor and make the animation much more realistic. I have developed some of the facial actions of my characters to make them seem more alive, and reacting to certain situations that occur during the  20 second sting.

Animation Development 7

Just another stage of development for my animation.

Animatic 4

This is my finished animatic, however I still need to add in my zoom and fade in shots it create a more exciting animation. I will add these in using aftereffects.

Animation Development 1

First look at my animation. All of the backgrounds have been uploaded and the time roughly sorted out, however these times may change depending on the length of time that each scene will take. I will add in different camera angles to make the animation more interesting to the audience.
