For this project I have decided to look at different water effects. This is going to be a large part of our final film as it involves an ox walking through a river with a cat and rat on its back.
I have decided to focus of the technical side of things as I am good at problem solving and prefer the technical side of things than creative. Im am using my existing skills and resources of my 3D artist magazine collection - with a load of tutorials, and the fact that I love a challenge and love to learn. I have also realised my weaknesses which are that I am not good at drawing and not good at painting. This includes using a graphics tablet and photoshop.
Other people on my team are a lot better at being artistic so I shall stick to my skills and focus on pushing myself in the technical side of things.
The reason I have chosen water effects is that our film is very reliant on it and making these effects as easy as possible will make the filmmaking process a lot easier. It is also an area which none of my team have though about so will be good to get some knowledge of working methods before we start to animate.
I intend to push myself in maya but also other software to find the best solution for our problem. I think I am a fast learner and this will benefit me massively.
Let the research begin!
