I have seen some amazing animation in the contributions of others, so again I think that this competition brings out the best of everyone. iClone comes with some animation clips and many more can be purchased. Over the years I have accumulated quite a collection. A clip is a pre-animated sequence that can be used as a…
By the way, you can continue to make adjustments as you see fit. It is best to this with a "blank" version of the character without animation (changes in dimension will cause any animation of the character to be deleted, for example). Once you have made your changes, you can then save your new version. In any scenes where…
Well, I just messed up my reply... :'( It had an elaborate explanation of how I did this scene. Briefly, I used one reference character positioned the same as the beginning of the next scene. The character to be animated was given the same X, Y, and Z coordinates. I applied the Idle_to_SitC01 motion clip to that character…
I finally have the time to start a WIP thread for my contribution to this contest. First an introduction. Even though my forum handle is "animagical", I'm actually know as "animagic" over at the RL forum. My specialty is making animated films using iClone, which I have been doing for several years. I am not a modeler, so I…
As a little teaser on how to create a vehicle with some built-in animation, here is a small taste of what's to come: It's a futuristic tricycle that started out as a 3D Warehouse model.
I worked on the Cerberus last night and created a little animation to share. I'm not sure how to add a video, so I'll just try a link first: [ame] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=42wLMg3-6I4[/ame] We will see... Hmm, apparently, you need to use the full youtube.com link, not the youtu.be link...
You can view my final entry at: [ame] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6fD2pEBOfh4[/ame]. Kazhandrah receives a message from her great-grandfather Lheandor Tamarindh. He is dying, and they "need to come together one last time to find and say the final word." This final word will undo the curse that has been put on their…
Some projects I plan in advance in quite some detail with a detailed screenplay. In this case I had more of a rudimentary idea, but I didn't quite know how the story would unfold. I just wanted to do something that could have originated from a game. Kazhandrah was initially by herself, but after creating her face, I didn't…
@Adityedit: Thank you for your comment. There sure are great contributions in this contest. But, even if I don't win, participating is still valuable to me as it has given me an idea for my next film. In the interest of time, I am going to show you setups in iClone of scene 2 and 3 of my cinematic and then a clip of the…
