Adaptation B: Ishtar Exploration Design Development

From the Mesopotamian characters to the tools they used to build the goddess, I have adapted the shapes and inspire me to come up with silhouettes of the my character's body shape and face.

Silhouettes of Ishtar
Additionally, after the screening of Sita Sings The Blues, I have looked into those kind of character drawings; simple yet it adapts the body shape from the Indian culture. So that's what I've done. I looked into the Mesopotamian culture to give me a start to the designs.

Adaptation A: Infographic without SFX

From my draft that I've previously did and looking at it again, I've reworked a couple of panels from the storyboard to make sure that now the message comes across clearer.

This is my infographics without the sound effects.

Autodesk Mudbox Lesson 3: Bump Mapping/Painting Details

For today's mudbox lesson, we learnt the workflow of Maya to Mudbox. So we first created our basic shape in maya and then have the UVs laid out. We then brought it into photoshop to create our desired design and then into Mudbox for painting the layer we had in photoshop and bump mapping it too.

Adaptation A: Infographics Development 05

After last Friday's tutorial, I went ot look again at how I could like the newspaper introduction to my following page instead of just having the wipe which was not an ideal transition. So I went to replace the personal data notepad I previously made with newspapers instead and this is a better transition. Now I am going to work on the colour/ texture of the background throughout the infographics.
