Belbel animation cell shaded

This is a small animation I made with Belbel in Carrara... She's one of the many 3D models offered at DAZ3d... So no, I didn't model her. I ddid do part of the music and that bg video is from a visualization plugin I used. ... Yeah it really isn't much but it's my first time ever donig something like this. (I've done other 3D things but nothing woth showing really.)

I know the animation isn't all that great but I'ms till pretty new at that and also I don't really know how to dance ... so I don't know how to make dancing animations... kinda makes sence if you think about it.

Well yeah but there it is... Enjoy... also you should know that Windows Movie Maker chopped out some of my frames... It's supposed to be a pure smooth 60 frames per second... but I guess movie maker thought differently or didn't/couldn't handle the epic smoothness the video had... So now it's kinda choppy at some points.


I'll try making another in the future with a bit better quality... and animation that makes a bit more sence. lol

Please leave comments and suggestions. Thank you.

Next time, try Virtualdub to stitch your frames together instead. Windows Movie Maker is convienient, but it really limits things. Downloading the Xvid codec to use with Vdub is a good idea, but any other installed codecs you already have should be available as well. Also 60 FPS is a bit much for this kind of presentation, 30FPS should be fine for most video applications that involve compression.

Looks nice for what is there, but bad compression doesn't help. Would be neat to see a remake.

@pauljs75 Thanks. I don't think I really knew about Vdub back then and as for a remake, I could do it with a different character, but the project file for that one is gone now due to hard drive failure... Hmm... There is a newer video I have with a different animation entirely but the character model isn't the best. Thanks for your responce though.

Thanks. Thsi isn't what we really work on. I know more 3D stuff than he does but he knows more movie stuff than I do. I'm glad you like it.

awesome

lol I wasn't even talking about that. BUT there IS a newer version... just never UL'ed it. In that version, the camera is focoused right on her face. The movement however is still the same because animating is hard work. DAZ Studio has a much more intuitive way of doing things which makes it a HECK of a lit easier to animate things... I don't see why they don't implement it into Carrara.

ya, i agree... u should have done better than this. The movement looks awful and only worth watching and bad camera pose.. im ready to comment on your next version n see whats your improvement...

Wow I just realized 2 things...

1. Super ultra mega low quality and 2... the video fell off sync... That background is supposed to pulse with the music. Maybe I will UL a better version of this.
