Abstract
One of
the most significant current discussions in the field of 3D animation is how to
make the character have more personality, in order to make the audience love
this character. The past 10 years have seen increasingly rapid advances in the field
of 3D character animation; however, creating an appealing character is essential
for the animation film. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to determine the
direction of 3D character animation research in my final project.
Introduction
In the
final project, I will focus on the action in 3D character animation, so I chose
dancing and fighting as my main exploration direction. I think dancing can present
the graceful movement, but fighting is the other intense action for the
performance, if they both appear together, it will be interesting and with
stark contrast; however, for the choice of character, I would like to use
animals instead of human beings for the action scenes. In fact, looking at
companies such as Pixar and DreamWorks animation, they have successfully
created a lot of impressive character roles, for example Toy Story, Kung Fu
Panda and Puss in Boots. Specifically the completion clips of dancing and
fighting in Puss in Boots gave me a lot of interest. The director enabled the
cat to become successful, to attract everyone’s eye, which has human
personality and reflected most vividly. Thus, I decided to take the ostrich as
my protagonist after my repeated exploration.
Methodology:
The
research will be carried out in four phases (pre-production stage):
1.
Search the film
or video resources, which are famous for dancing and fighting, analyze the specific
movements of character (a week)
2.
Develop a short
story and explore the different possible ending. There are contradictions and
conflicts between the characters (a week).
3.
Search the
relative reference, include dancing and fighting, which could use in story and
shoot it (3 weeks).
4.
Design main
characters and draw a storyboard (2 weeks).
Conclusion
About my
final project, which is the sum of the past year I have learned, and I want
present a professional level of work. So I will do a lot of research and make an
adequate preparation in the pre-production stage.
