Animation Completed (Monthly) (Patreon)

Kaitlyn and Emma find themselves in a spooky situation 😱.

I want to get back used to doing intro stuff, I've been inspired by works of others and think I have the capabilities but just need to focus on basics to make it look better. This one has some issues but I think overall is a step in a better direction.

NOTE: I have a fem version I have to render again due to a small issue and will try to get that out tomorrow

Check the usual links in Patreon's collections Tab named "Tier Folders" for peanut tier and cashew tier. Check folder called "Quarry". Fem Version included

**Tech Notes**

UI

I really got excited to do the UI because it's pretty basic but lets me do some new stuff outside of just Blender with some basic shapes and editing of which I am unfamiliar. I tried to make it close to the game and got to add my own little nut logo 😄.

Lighting

Not gonna harp on this too long but I like what I was able to do with the lighting in most of the shots. The shots with Kaitlyn weren't too crazy but I like the Emma lighting. I could have maybe improved but I only want to test new stuff for so long until I move on.

Animation

Like mentioned, I used Noise to try and make some movements more unique. I think it works at times and at others doesn't as well. Overall it's only a positive, I'll use it when it helps and won't when it doesn't. I tried a method of animating I normally don't do and I don't think it fits my style to well. I tried to only animate what was in the camera angle as a priority however when I went back in later and wanted to change or adapt things, it made it problematic. So, I'll probably do what I do before which is to fully animate so that it looks correct from mostly all angles. I would love to get more angles out of this but I unfortunately didn't set it up to do so

General

I could have enhanced this more but I think the result is fine and I was glad to get the practice doing longer stuff so I can increase it when I try again. Not to make excuses but I am aware that the timings on the scenes and the speed of the animation could be improved but I had sort of a time limit that was approaching with this being monthly. Next longer project probably won't be a monthly especially so I don't have to worry about time.
