Conclusion

I thoroughly enjoyed this module because it is so interactive and one learns both a software and planning to create a story and scenario. I have learnt that you could not really start the task of the animation unless you write the story and plan the animation to a bite size sections to action.

Once I decided on a funny character "a Bird with Boobs" the I had to write a story. Once the story was written then I started the task of animation. I had to look for pictures that fitted my story. Once all the story material was gathered together I started the animation task. To do this I had to learn how to use 3Dmax. To achieve this I attended the lectures and looked at the course notes on VLE and reading a book on 3D max and also used online tutorial trainings.

I very successfully created my story of Grumpy Bird with boobs who is depressed and her depression is as a result of her being different to other birds. Consequently she has no interest or patience for life.

In this module I have managed to action and implement my story successfully in 3Dmax and learnt using most of the animation capability of the 3D max and completed my first 3D character animation.
