This is the rendered animation of my final project, I think it turned out nice, I'm pretty happy with it. As you can see there's camera animation and the butterfly's animation. All the models look nice together and the butterfly stands out well among the fruits due to its blue wings. This animation turned out pretty short and there's a few errors here and there (that are not too noticeable). In case the video won't play I've also included 1 frame from the animation from both cameras.
The Setup
This is a screenshot showing the layout of the scene, you can see where the cameras, lights, and models are and how they are arranged. As the lighting suggests, the table, especially the fruit bowl at the center, are very important elements besides the butterfly which is in the darkness here since this was taken at frame 0.
Here you can se that the purple light is the one highlighted in the screenshot and in addition you can see the settings I used for it.
This is the main overhead light which is white and also has its settings visible in the right side of the image.
This is the settings and placement of the blue light. I added 2 colored lights to give the scene some extra color and extra life.
In this image (which was taken at frame 81 from camera 2), you can see another interesting angle and frame from the animation which also shows where the cameras are aiming at as shown by the green circle/dot.
The Storyboard
This is my storyboard which my animation ended up following pretty closely, as shown here the idea is basically that the butterfly flies into the scene, lands briefly onto an orange, and then takes off again and flies off into the darkness. I already showed my storyboard in my last post but I'm putting it here to be with the rest of my stuff for my Final Project.
Everyone's projects were great and interesting but for this week's assignment I will look at Tyler Getz's midterm project and Alex Lubeck's Midterm . Tyler Getz's Midterm This looks pretty cool, I like the animation that is there so far and the lily pads are nice. It would be nice to see some textures and to see the green frog get a face of some sort. The water would like really nice if it were textured and animated too, but depending on the look you are going for that may not be necessary, but ripples in the water would make sense. The character/frog animation can be improved by further exaggerating the squash and stretch. It may make it seem a bit more cartoonish if it is exaggerated a lot but it is already more abstract so I think it could work for this. Additionally, the animation can be improved by making the lily pads dip a bit down into the water from the impact of the frog landing on it.

For this first exercise I decided to make a simple pepperoni pizza. I used the geometric prism, flattened it and stretched the point to make the base of the pizza, then I squished multiple spheres to make the pepperoni slices, and finally, I used a cylinder which I scaled and stretched to be the pizza crust. I decided to also include the four different views of my model above.
This is the rendered view with some lighting I did for my tea pot model. This model was made out of 3 main parts, the lid, spout, body/base, and handle. The body and lid were made by creating a unique curve and revolving around it to get a 3D shape, small adjustments were made to the curve to get the shapes seen here. The handle was made from a partial and modified NURBS Torus and the spout was made from an edited NURBS cylinder. Here is the 4 view layout with the Outliner. I added some lights and a plane to act as the floor.
