Maya

This is a small WIP board, showing a few screens of things im working on.
Working in Maya, though in a really unconventional way.

This project isn't really suited to creating entire backgrounds in 3D, as it's only 20 seconds, and there's limited time, so i've made some 'cube-rooms', like a storyboard in 3D, to shoot through.
Also had fun projecting textures, and warping them, to fit and create some fun effects.
Not sure if i'll use the bump mapping that's in the screenshots, but i really enjoy the wacky colour and lighting.

This is my 20second slot of sound, with Brian, the square, bobbing to the music. Just a quick test to see if my maths were any good with the music.
Turns out they were, though i planned to adjust every 100 frames, with an extra 7..but found anything more than 3 frames out was seriously noticeable. so i edited this to every 50, found it better, but fast got confused at the 8th and 10th second.
 I ended up using the waveform graph from the music, and spacing the keyframes at roughly 10 frame intervals, and adjusting manually every 5-6 keyframes. So it was less a mathematical approach, and a bit more organic. :/
O wel.
