3D Character Animation
Description:
If My Grandmother Had Wheels…
If My Grandmother Had Wheels… is a 3D character animation with a focus on lip-sync and facial acting. The character model and rig was provided, but I was solely responsible for animating the character, creating a set, and setting up lighting and a camera. The goal of the animation was to teach all aspects of lip-syncing – body movement, expressions, and mouth moving – as well as build upon character animation skills such as follow through, leading, and secondary motion.
The audio was taken from @digitalmediafan on YouTube and can be watch here. The original clip is from an episode of This Morning and features Gino D’Acampo. The model and rig was downloaded from Advanced Skeleton, and can be found here, titled “Tuna”.
