Made this animation today! Almost done, too, just need to finalize a couple of things.

412K Washing Hands Animation Progress

Got some good work done on the handwashing animation this week as well! Using some of the water flow assets I had already created for the showering animation, I created running water for the sink (even though I already had many assets for this, animating it is still pretty brutal; elemental animation is tufffffff!) Click on them for the motion:

Then I added the hand movement:

Now I need to go back through and add the soap/water interaction. This is probably the most complicated part of the animation, so that’s why I saved it for last.

412 Shower Animation Progress

Made some progress on the shower animation today! I have added movement to the glasses guy in the shower. I wanted it to loop and I think I’m happy enough with the action to move on to finalizing the animation. Click on him to see him move!

RUS412K Final Animations Board Wipe Progress

Some progress with an animation of the Professor wiping a rude drawing off of the board.

I only worked one day between last meeting and this one so I don’t have much to update, but I’ve continued to compile the scene with the dirty dishes. Here is the progress:

I started with the dirty plates stacking, but the scale was too small. Tate also told me to add more plates on the edge of the screen to suggest that the pile continued on past the camera. I also added more masking on the bowls so the overlapping looks more realistic.

Then I created the clean dishes pile, and put masking on all those bowls and cups too. Unfortunately, Tate told me there were too many rolling pins.

So finally I have the dirty dishes actually “dirtied” up, and I’ve killed off the other two rolling pins! The dirty splotches were just made by a semi-opaque brush with brown, green, and red hues. Well the cafe owner has a lot of work to do… this looks like a not-fun job!!
