Jay Plays - Updated Title Sequence (Preview 25.2)
Added 2022-05-19 14:52:01 +0000 UTCI've spent some quality time in Blender this week and last, working on my title sequence. I always wanted to add people to it but then life happened and I never got round to it. Animations always take several (hundred) iterations, and the above it the latest render in 60fps. Here are all the changes:
- added Toon Skeleton to the front booth
- added Toon Skeleton with hood as the popcorn vendor
- added AJ as a popcorn customer
- added The Boss who walks into the auditorium
- added various viewers to the auditorium
There were some issues with a previous version I've uploaded last week, namely that AJ didn't start walking early enough, and there was only one lonely test viewer whom I barely noticed.
I'm fixing a couple of minor annoyances with the new sequence just now: some the automatic Mixamo materials are too shiny on the viewers, and The Boss could start walking a little earlier than he currently does. I'm going to have this ready for the stream on Saturday.
The next step in this project is to amalgamate all my title sequences into a single Blender project for easy upkeep in the future. This thing has grown out of a quick test project into a recognisable mini movie that I've been chipping away at for literally years - and I'm still not bored of it yet. My plan is to separate all image related items into collections so I can swap them out.
I'll let you know how it goes :-)
