This post is related to Animation course by Nicolò Ceccarelli and Andrea Brogi at Architecture University in Alghero. The project has been developed together with Federica Carta, Francesco Fogu and Luna Gasparini.
During the last four month of this accademic year we worked on 3d animations with professors Nicolò Ceccarelli and Andrea Brogi.
Me and my group worked on a simple but funny story that had the aim of answering a critique question: what happens to a ball once it falls in the hole?
We started with the storyboard to get a clear idea of how the story should developed; we focused on the most interesting and chatching parts eliminating other extras.
Then we proceded to the aniamtic in with we started placing the cameras and moving the “characters” and setting up the music.
Here below you can see the final animatic.
To realise the video we used Maya 2009, After Effect, Photoshop and Illustrator.
Personally i cared mostly about the animations, the editing and a little bit of lighting in the pinball scene.
