semester 3 project idea


3 Semester projects
Firstly, I am going to have a different approach to the project. This will entail on building the movement around the environment rather than having the idea of the movement than putting it in the environment. 
In addition to this, I want to have to the end product as a short story which will be on the lines of my inspiration for the project (super 8) NOTE: this will be a short clip which I want to recreate, so parts won't the be the same as the movie but the main actions which the viewer will see will be created from the storyline. Also, I am going to add more the scene which isn’t true to the storyline of the film but doesn’t happen, IE the timeline of the events.

The overall goal for the project
To design and recreate small 15 – 30 seconds clips which will be all be put together to make a small film. Each clip will be a small story snippet from the film, below is the ideas which I’ve chosen.

The Ideas for each clip
Ruff idea of what the storyline that ill be recreating.
·         Car cut scene
·         Arriving at the town
·         Seeing the train crash
·         All metal parts will move the water tower
·         Alien will appear at the water tower
·         the spaceship will fly off into space

The progress from the screenshots to the individual senses
From researching the movie and taking screenshots, I started the progress of splitting up the different images senses which I want to create.

Below is the brief of what will happen
1)      Starting with the car which is travelling into the town. B-roll shots of it moving and the detail of the car. This will be very simple senses but importing for the storyline and setting the senses.
2)      Car getting hit by the train which goes through the town. This will give the first action in the senses as the viewer will be able to see a lot happing. Explosion, train, and carriage flying around.
3)      After the train crash, one of the carriages will start to open, this is when the alien will appear. The player will not see it but will know what it is once they get towards the end, making the viewer think!
4)      Metal parts will start to move and start to head over to the water town, starting from little to bigger pieces of metal. The water tower will be where the alien spaceship will be and will launch from.
5)      The spaceship will launch and head up to space. Size and lights will be key to show the scale of the spaceship.

For all the senses they will be heavily B-Roll shots and will show the detail of the models and the movement in the senses


The movement
In each sense, the viewer will be able to see movement, from the last two projects I had a heavily involved moment which had many changes. For this project, there will be a subtle movement which will be highlighted throughout the video.
There will be general movements like cars, trains, and spaceships. Within this, there will be some key movement which will entail more to the storyline, like license plate falling and spinning in the ground. This is one of the examples and from each clip, there will be one special movement

Maya Modelling

Maya modelling Throughout the project I have been using Maya to model all my assets. I have also use ideas created by artists as inspiration for this. https://www.artstation.com/artwork/v86vv https://www.artstation.com/artwork/OPQnk The process that I have taken has been to draw out sketches of the environment which I want to create. To achieve this, I did research to make sure at all of my ideas were in the same aesthetic. The reason that I did all this was to keep all my work as close to contexts as possible and to have the same theme as ‘steampunk’.

maya modeling

Throughout the project, I wanted to create a Steam Train from the 19th-century era. from the designs and the research, I knew what I wanted to design. I feel like I have improved a lot throughout the project and have developed the modelling. below is the final of the train With the issues of the animation and the modelling what very rushed at the end of the semester to get it all done. For the next project, I want to focus on the moulding and the texturing for the project then add movement in towards the end, this is because ill will have finished work.

Lighting

Lighting  I have used lighting within my project to achieve an authentic and realistic setting from the perspective of the player. Looking at the references by artists, I have focused on recreating these ideas. I have done research on how to maximise lighting in UE4 without overcrowding the scene. I felt that this is the best route to follow. The first thing was the lighting points, in this case, they were the fixtures. After this, I placed some subtle lights down the walls and looked at the overall environment to see if I was gaining maximum realism. Making sure that my placement of these lights was as realistic as possible.  I spent time finding a tutorial online, which showed me some new pointers on how to use lighting in various different ways to what I originally intended. This was useful in maximising the realism of the environment scene.
