Elliott Trent: Visual Effects, 3D Modeling and Cheese

Over the past week or so there’s been a fair amount of set backs! So that explains the slight lack of blogging here! But we are now really starting to steam ahead!

Last thursday I completed the Shake course! And I did it by making a green screen peice in shake! Which I will publish later on (it’s at uni!).

So now its time to get back to work, Annie needs us to create a scene of a character ripping his heart out, and throwing it down a valley.. gruesome I know! Thankfully Mike isn’t going to be tackling it otherwise we’d probably end up getting some form of legal action against us after showing it to children.

First of all it becomes apparant that modelling this heart isn’t going to be a straight forward task, it’s going to be highly observational! I will probably model it on another CG heart that I find a picture of like this..

And as for the chief.. I really want to have a go at proper character design. I’m going to base him on a classic chief and make him look really cheeky..

Really looking forward to getting stuck in again.. footage that I made the other day with the green screen wil lfollow!
