Sewer scene (1)

1

Animation

This scene uses reactor for the first part. The Plane is slightly angled and the eyes and floor are rigidbodies. One eye rolls down the plane till it hits the other. From here the eyes travel up into the blob till they reach the head. A ripple effect is created using the FFD Box Spacewarp.

They eyes pop out, and I use FFD Box to animate the arm waving.

The camera follows the eye as it rolls and moves through the blob, it then zooms out towards the end.

Character

The main point of this scene is to introduce the character to the viewer. The main show of emotion comes at the end, where the blob cutely waves at the camera before switching to the next scene.

Problems

My first attempt at this was using a softbody to create the ripple effect. However, I believe the mesh was too complex to use, as it glitched and flew off the screen. I also had the problem of the eyes not rolling properly, but this was fixed by adjusting the mass.

Changes

Added the wave.
