Catterpiller Design

For this piece I just wanted to make the catterpiller in photoshop out of simple circles.

Character 3d Concept

To help develop my caterpillar character I played with some spheres in Maya just to get a general shape.

Animation + Camera Ideas

I feel the animation would be great to start as a circle with the camera about the tree. Then panning down to the side of the tree zooming into the egg. Each time there is a transformation the camera zooms out and spins around the tree and zooms back. I want the whole animation to be a circle around the tree.

Circles

During my tutorial on Friday with Alan we discussed using Circles as the backbone to the project. Everything is broken down into circles thus making the project simple to produce but allowing stylistic freedom. Alan showed me this tin tin animation which was just based around a sphere.

I found this animation which is similar, I’m unsure if its the same guy but either its pretty damn good.

I love the simplistic combination of shapes and soundscape in this short. It demonstrates how the simplest things can be the most effective.

Butterfly Farm Stratford Upon Avon

I made a visit to Stratford Upon Avon on Sunday and swung by the butterfly farm. It was a large green house packed with butterflies.

There were butterflies from all over the world. The were all free to touch and hold. So many patterns and colours to reference.

There was a Emerging Cage where all the cocoons were kept, It showed all the different stages of the Metamorphosis.
