Modelling Progress

I forgot to upload anything regarding my modelling progress ._.
Well here is a few of my progress screenshots for my skull Molly!

I actually had started with a circle and divided it in half but I couldn't find a screenshot for it QAQ

Tried smoothing it out while modelling to see a basic shape of what it would look like...

Looks more like a turtle or something so far.

Began adding the lower teeth to the skull. I ended up making the teeth a lot pointier to make the skull look more scary. The rounded cheeks still made the skull look cute though :D

Added the nose! I had so much trouble trying to make the nose look something similar to a spade.
I noticed that some of the faces within my skull were.......deciding to be little annoyances and had hidden faces with TONS of vertexes everywhere O_O (Many thanks to the Keatinator for cleaning up my mess QAQ)

Smoothed Out, vertexes are a bit out of place down the middle and the top slightly sticks upwards >.>

After finishing one side, I duplicated it and joined the vertexes down the middle of the model. Gave her the lazy eye for her left eye :3 Yaaaaay she looks a lot better than what I initially thought would be the outcome.

Rig Demo

A day late...QAQ
At least I got it done! Sorry Shoo, I made you clumsy :D

Prop Turntable - MChoi_BAR06prop

So...This is my prop turntable! >.>;;;;;;

Maya files will be uploaded to Google Drive ><

Storyboard

After some fiddling around with the concepts, I ended up combining elements that worked well from each one into a final storyboard!

(And here I once again smack myself mentally for not practising drawing backgrounds enough -_-;)

Peers mentioned that they were clearly able to see the contrast between Shoo and the room regarding size, and the contrast between Shoo's before and after. Elements of the background and how she moves around the room constructed a character who seemed to be your normal adorable five year old, and this lead to a larger impact regarding her transformation.

Story Board - Concepts

Hello again! I just plan to upload my story board concepts that I had in mind ><

Concept 1

For this concept, I received comments which said that the storyboard flowed well in one direction (to the left). Much like I was, some individuals said that they didn't really see the need in the panning upwards at the end of the sequence.

Concept 2

Because Shoo's face isn't really shown in the first segment of the sequence, people weren't able to fully relate to the character properly. Despite this, the slight shortness shown in Shoo's height was well portrayed as she closed the door, making it look adorable. Many peers welcomed the idea of having a long shot or establishing shot of the room AFTER Shoo's transformation.

Concept 3

A friend got worried when she saw that I would have to animate the bedsheets in a different software: would you have time to do that? Even though we don't have to do the background unless we have time to, the animation itself involves the character moving WITH the background (bed) so it would look awkward without it.
The contrast with the small cute painting and the skull was clear to different individuals which I am glad about!
