Scene 1: “Kinetic Sculpture Interpretations”
With these 2 scenes I aimed to capture the spirit of IRL kinetic sculptures. The first inspiration was WHITEVOIDS “Fluidic”. The second inspiration was drawn from Berndnauts “Indoor Cloud”, “Nimbus” in the Walt Disney Concert Hall & “Cloud” by Caitlind R. C. Brown & Wayne Garrett.
Scene 2: “The Mage – Magic Effects”
For this exercise I was given a scene with a mage performing magic. It was my task to conjure the magic he was showcasing!
The animation techniques & magics showcased are;
– Darkness
– Rigid Body
– Fire
– Light
– Water
– Smoke
Scene 3: “Forced Happiness”
For this scene I was asked to use generative AI to generate an image of specific emotions. From the list I chose “Forced Happiness”.
The image it created resembled a clowns mouth made from balloons with confetti flying everywhere.
To tackle this I went with a soft-body simulation get the essence of the picture. along with the visuals I used the audio to really drive home the particular variation of happiness I was embodying.
