second armature design skin





Here is the creature covered in plasticine, i want we a range of colours because i wanted to give off that impression that the creature was really made up of different body parts, and naturally they wouldn't all look the same. I left the legs unfinished because someone else in my group is creating the clothes.

second armature design


This is the armature made off of my final design, after making the wire structure i then packed out parts of the armature with newspaper and masking tape before covering it with plasticine so that i didn't have to use so much, other wise the armature would have been to heavy and to use.

armature design


Here is an armature design for my second character design, i put it up because the armature is very similar to my final designs one so i only put this one up on my blog.

face expressions 1



Here are a few different expression to show that the creature can make different faces and still look like the original design, I only did two because this wasn't the final design we are going to use so i didnt want to get much into this one.

different face views


here are the different views of the creature to show that it has a 3 dimensional feel to it.

more character designs


more character designs, here is another design for frankenstein's moster after the group decided that my first one wasn't going to work because of it being to cartoony i went for a more detailed approach. But then the design was to detailed and had alot going on and it would have been hard to animate everything.

Week 4 Armature has Skin











Week 4 my second Armatures










Week 4 my first Armatures










Week 3 more Photography










Week 3 Modelling heads










Week 2 final half test


Week 2 first half test


Week 2 Test walking through the sand


Week 2 Test 1 book reading


Week 1 Test 2




As our group made a second test we thought that it maybe a good idea to just to do something a little different as the figures walking so we just go the figure to do a simple trip and fall to the floor.

Week 1 Test 1




Replacement stop animation, meaning instead of moving a single figure like the one in the video, you take loads of that one figure and position them in all different positions and then as you take one photo you then remove that figure and replace it with a different one and take the next photo.
