REALISTIC MUSCLE ANIMATIONS
About Me:
The most difficult part of animation is the hair which is not easy to control. Long hair takes up most of the rendering time. For the current model Little Jenny I have opted for a simple yet feminine bob with high stiffness setting.
Ever since I was youngster I have had a keen interest in the art of animation, in particular Japanese anime movie's like Akira, that show its possible to make cartoon films for an adult audience. Animating is most enjoyable as it enables me to use my imagination.
Animating a human, in particular a human with interactive muscular development; is very very difficult compared to animating a robot. 3D graphic software applications do a good job when it comes to rigging a skeleton to a figure. There are 2 problems though :-
1. The movement between joints performs well on outside of the joint, but on the inside there appears to be an unrealistic crunching effect. This can be seen clearly in the arm and legs joints which can bend sharply, and also in the deltoids which moves in all "x" "y" and "z" directions.
2. Muscles are not uniform when expanded and contracted, they change shape in different ways (most notably the triceps) , also the bending of a joint can have an effect on the muscle not on that joint - this can be seen when the arm is brought towards the body causing the pectorial muscle to contract.
To solve these problems one must a create a number of morphs for each muscle group which are used depending on the position of the human.
On the current model I am working on there are 75 separate morphs for the muscles and face.
My original occupation was as a CAD draughtsperson using a computer package called AutoCAD. All the work produced was in 2d. I have changed occupations however I still like to keep and update the skills learned from the time spent as a draughts person to produce 3d animations.

3d, would you be willing to allow me to e-mail you a friend's photo as a reference for a future Ms. Muscle model?

The more detail the animation has, the longer it takes to render. As an example to render just 1 minute of footage can takes over 24 hours in HD. To solve this problem I will be using 2 computers to cut the rendering time by halve.
