Fro semester one I learnt how to do modelling techniques which came in very useful when doing this assignment because I enjoyed doing the modelling. The duck walking in was the first render I did. When I saw the finished result I was very happy. It took four hours to render this scene. For this I knew I had to be quick with the animation because.

Make sure when you render in 3D Max that you use Microsoft Video 1 as your compression type. If you render as MJPEG you will find that Premiere Pro does not play the AVI file. Also the size of your render should be 800x600. You can choose a larger size, but beware it will take longer to render. For my tutorial on Premiere Pro. For a link to some of the fables.

Once my frames had rendered I imported the animation into Adobe Premiere Pro. In here I created a title to play at the beginning of the animation with my Sid Details on. I also added some sounds effects I had gathered of an eagle screeching and wings flapping to give the animation a more realistic feel. Tuesday, 4 May 2010.

However I made the mistake of making the limbs on my characters far too thick. Due to their thickness their range of movement was very limited. My inexperience animating was the reason I made this mistake. It proved to be my biggest problem throughout the animation process and something I would definitely change if I were to do the module again. I used a variety of different camera shots mixing long shots, aerial shots, close ups and a point of view shot. Having the freedom of .

I used websites to find tutorials on how to use different tools, methods, effects and techniques. I am pleased with the final 3D animation, although I realise there is always room for improvement. At last here is the final video. There was no option that I could find to export to AVI, which may be because my Premiere Pro and Adobe Media Encoder are on a Mac computer not on a Windows so my final video is in MOV. The main part of the.
