Assignment 2
Ahh! Animation!

single frame
Salty has a bad day




410 frames (~13 secs) worth of Salty's futile attempt to get a giant articulated mushroom to play ball.


Both Salty and mushroom are easily keyframed with IK handles and clusters. Once again, brownian motion covers the ground.
Salty follows the instructions in the tutorial.

The mushroom has (or more like, is) a fully articulated leg, controlled manually via an IK handle below the head. The head of the shroom is also controllable, with a full bone structure spiralling within it and an IK handle on top to move it.

Motion blur was used during the final render. The image is a little grainy, as jpg images were produced at render time, as 410 targa images would have killed (and infact did kill!) my usage quota!

One directional light and an ambient light was used.
