Of Bots and Bananas Final

Of Bots and Bananas Final




Ok this is my final version of my Robot Animation. On the whole I am really happy with it, all things considered this is the first piece of animation I've ever attempted and everything moves well and looks natural. The main problem though is my choice of background, I had a black horizon but I don't think this works at all because it means that you can't see a lot of the robots. I'll hopefully change this at some point in the future.


The biggest problems with it come from my over ambition really, I tried a lot of different camera angles and pans thinking that this would link in with my flying robot however it doesn't really work. Another part is when the robot actually trips, I wanted a really epic slow motion scene where the robot helper only just escapes however something doesn't quite work and the camera angle restricts what you can see a lot, so by trying something new it actually misses out some of the best bits of animation.


However I am really proud of how it looks and is modelled really well, its a miracle that I managed to get the rig to work because it was that complicated and the fact that I've got anything even half functional is amazing. So yeah I'm very happy with it, if I get time I might go back and iron out a few of the mistakes but on the whole it's a good effort and I'm proud of it.
