Fixing rigging errors with Kim's help




Before when I was skinning my weights I struggled and left the screen for a bit. But Kim told me a way to guarantee all the weights are correctly balanced. I went on: (Windows-General editor- Component Editor) then on Smooth Skins by selecting 0 on the vertexes that don't need that influence on that area of the mesh. It is important if you want to change (add 0 or leave it) to unlock these jnt_ with the golden lock. Once done then lock them so you can't ruin the work you've done.

I have to skin the face and then my next step after that I will recreate the eyes as they were in the wrong place and parented too late. I will watch videos on Toolkit specifically on making eyes and ensuring they are connected to the face.

Major final animation

This is it, the final animation, the culmination of all these months and blog posts. There was a slight hesitation on "WHEN" to post it leading up to it due to rendering times, but as it's complete and there's no reason to add extra stress and upload it on the last day, which is the 18th of May, I'll upload it now. Reacting to the animation, I'm quite proud of how far I've come from the previz. During the previz stage, I was unaware of Substance Painter and how much it could do for me. I was also unaware of After Effects, as I prioritized Adobe Premiere above it. However, I have found After Effects more user-friendly and powerful, regardless of my prior history with other editing software. As displayed in my blog posts by me, I did have to look at Youtube for help, and I was honest with that to help me improve on unfamiliar equipment.

Major not losing lighting

  This is the original scene when the boy is amazed by the stairs sign in the new flat.  I added lips to my character in this scene, but if you look closely there are highlights on his bottom lip, the original scene did have highlights around the mouth so I did not want to lose that.
