Week 6

this week we dove into the process of using the shape editor to allow us to create keyframes that would give our animation the ability to move, and therefore give it a function. I also began to smooth out the angles of my animation in order to make it stronger and more life like.

Week 5

This week we began the process of creating a surface around a digital face that we created. the reason for doing this is it allows us to understand further into how to measure and use sticky surfaces and will late allow us to move the face in order to animate it.

i was challenged by this as it was of course new to me. although i feel that this process benefitted me in my ability to understand shapes within maya. I also was told to completely avoid making triangles this made the process more difficult as some shapes would naturally benefit from a triangel shape although for the purpose of this excersize it would ruin the model.
