Today we got to show how much animation we had done so far or just a viewing of our animatic. I decided to present the work of one of my animations so far just to see if there was any feedback on what I could change and if it was going well.
Sadly, I didn't get much of a positive response at all. In comparison to everyone else's work, mine is only short at 30 seconds (though there will be three of them) and nobody really liked what I had done so far. This was a little disheartening, but it just meant that I had to try harder at my project. Some of the feedback is as follows:
- Everything needs to look more 3D, it is too flat and doesn't look realistic.
- Character needs to be redesigned as it is too simple. Perhaps spend more time on him and then use him in all three? Would be good for a campaign/branding idea.
- Animation needs to be more obviously 'drunk'. Can barely tell. Maybe record some sounds myself of slurring/falling around?
- More depth and light shadows.
- Crash sound at the end needs to sound more severe. At the minute, it sounds like a glass bottle breaking.
- More 'wobbly' driving, feels too static at the minute.
Even though I was disheartened that my work wasn't that good so far, I am feeling motivated to get back in and try harder for the next crit. Hopefully I will have a better response then!
