Creating a short film

Planning

INTRODUCTION

“Hi, my name is Leanne and I’m a student studying level 3 VFX and animation here at Colchester institute. This is a video about my aspired job roles within the industry”

Upbeat audio gets louder when not talking

Different Angles, blurs maybe?

 

JOB ROLE ONE

“The first job, that I most aspire to do is 3D modelling. This job concludes of taking concept art from 2D designers and creating a 3D computer generated model which will then be passed on the be lit and textured. The best way forward in this role is to get a specialist VFX uni degree, and constantly be improving your show reel. The average salary in the UK appears to be around £27 per hour. I am most interested in this job role so therefore will be trying to learning a few different software’s including Maya and blender and so on”

Some shots and photos of 3D modelling, maybe a sped-up video?

Same audio through and louder when not speaking

Final Product vs in the making

 

JOB ROLE TWO

“The second job I have researched is an environment artist. People working in this field have a very similar job to3D modeller however they take environments that would be unrealistic to film in real life for example space and create a realistic backdrop for the characters using 3D dimensions. Ideally for this role you need at least a vocational degree but you should also be working on your environmental skills having a good knowledge of landscapes and cityscapes”

Environments and then the CGI environments

Space animation?

 

JOB ROLE THREE

“The third job I’m looking at is an animator. Whilst this is quite different from the other two jobs, I have enjoyed messing around, animation 3D models I have created in my own time. I am more interested in the 3D animation side. An animator will give personality to a rig and make it move in a stylized way. You’ll need a specialist Uni degree to do this and also be good at art and understanding special awareness”

Examples of different animations- 3D/2D

Can include some programmes used

 

CONCLUSION

“Overall, I am most excited for learning more about 3D modelling and cannot wait to jump into bigger projects and spend more time learning different software. Thankyou”

Today, I have started planning my video. Using the researched for the jobs of my choice I created a slimmed down script of some of the key information and recorded this at home using my iPhone which I will transfer through to my college drive. I then spent some time lightly planning the visuals and finding some images and coming up with small ideas however I will figure this mostly out when messing around with it when its being produced. I have also found a piece of music from bensound.com which I have decided to place behind the audio of me speaking.
