the final work of component2

the storyboard of component2


This is the story of a panda and a monkey, based on the film "Kung Fu Panda". My job is make a short animation sequence combining 3D with the live action. All I need to do is make the monkey move and import it to the moive and fit each other. The story is about the panda who want to stand up when he was lying on the table, and the monkey who stood on panda's belly tried to help him to stand up. However, the panda failed everytime, and he always shaked the monkey because of his weight when he lie down.

sketch of clap and rap

Here are some sketches about clap and rap which combined with the reference and personal ideas.

The reference of clap and rap (Eminem lose yourself)

Animation task 5 (clap and rap)

Based on the lip sync, the next animation is about clap and rap. I chose the reference of the song "lose yourself" from Eminem. Because I don't know too much about the rap singer, in order to get more information about their performance, I watched the video of Eminem for many times and tried to know what a rap singer should look like in his performance. In my animation, the singer is very confident when he is singing. Moreover, most lyrics should fit the action of character to reach a better effect.

Animation Task 4 (lip sync animation)

This is the first time to me to make lip sync, actually speaking, it is not very hard to finish it when I have practiced for two or three times. The good way is finishing the based lip action like simple open and close at first, then working on the chin and the corners of the mouth. At last, focus on the shape of the lip to reach different words. By the way, the expression should be done to fit the lip sync like blink and eyebrows action.
