Modeling
Brainstorming part 2
Cause group project takes me lots of time so I don’t have enough time for mt personal project. so i have to make a new idea which is easier for me to do.
Story Line
Gummy Bear is a common snack, i want to create a project about a Gummy Bear’s adventure.
A gummy bear in a candy bottle realise that its gonna be eaten by human, so it try to escape, then falling down to the ground, being chasing by pigeons.
it keeps running then falling in to a hole, then it find another place to travel
Part 1
Taking videos

Video 3
Final
I took videos in Battersea Park, taking videos about pigeons eating food and somewhere for gummy bear to run.
and then compositing three videos into one, using it as background for C4D files to animate gummy bear.

Gummy Bear Material
I downloaded materials online for gummy’s, tried few of them, at last I choose the green material cause I think the brightest colour would be the best.
Bottle
modelling bottle in C4D to contain gummy bear, also made a label for it.
Render test

Animating gummy bear depend on videos
Basic animation
Animation that Depend on Videos
About the gummy bear animation, I import video’s sequences as background to help me animate the exact right positions.
In this part, I found out some difficulties from videos.
- I realised that the first part is not long enough cause I wanted to add lots of gummy bears animation. at first I want it get up, and then climb out of the bottle, but it’s all be difficult cause I didn’t shoot enough time for this scene. so my solution is using the first frame as still frame.
- video quality is not good enough, so after I combine model and video together, it doesn’t fit.
- video is shaking, which would influence final video quality as well.
After render both model and shadows into png, I used AE to setting times of each frame, and then combine it as part 2 final.
Tracking_Nuke
I tracked the ground and added a hole on it to match gummy bear’s animation.

Part 2
I think justing modelling is not interesting enough, also drawing is the easiest way to show gummy bear’s fear, so I decided to draw it.

Pre-intro of this scene
At first, I just started my project with content in Part1, but after this part, I started to animated the scene before this by same process, which is about gummy bear stand up, aim to adding a pre introduction of following footage.
In this process video, I animate the gummy bear climbing and jumping outside of the bottle to escape, then use the drawing part as follow video. But I lost this file somehow, due to time limited, I just did easy animation for this part as final video which can see as followed.

Part 3
When gummy bear fall in to an underground place, it saw a house with great view.
The following process’s photos would be in PDF I uploaded at Moodle assessment.

Adding materials
During modelling process, I combined models together to make it convenient for me to adjusting position, but it cause more works during add materials. While using OC Render, I can get live viewer which it convenient for me to have a preview. The hole project materials use Morandi colour scheme.

Animation
adding gummy bear’s animation, jumping, running, climbing, etc.
The screenshot is from the last render part cause I forgot to screen recording when I adding key frames.
This part I made the gummy bear slipping down the slide and then have a quick view of the whole scene.

Editing physical sky’s time
At first I set the time late cause I want it dark, but I found out some details would be miss if it’s dark, so I change the time around 7-9 p.m.

After render it in C4D, I used PR to render it into MP4 as final version of part3.
