Life as A Punk Rocker

My final intern project for Pixel Park Studio to highlight the progress of developing a concept to final animation.

Music plays an important part in my life and self expression. The world can be overwhelming and make you feel you have to wear a mask to fit in. Music helps me feel free to express myself and be who I am.

Step 1: Concept and Mood Board

I started by creating my own concept. I was inspired by the punk scene and how music can help let you break free and be yourself. I included a mood board and some examples of animations I was also inspired by.

Step 2: Sketches

The next step I like to sketch with very rough sketches in my sketch book to just got out some initial ideas to get the creative processes started.

Step 3: Story board

Once I had an idea of the direction I wanted to go I grabbed my IPad and worked on some cleaner sketches for the follow of the video. 

Step 4: Design Boards

Since I planned to use photo real images along with illustration inspired by the old school punk flyers, I worked in Photoshop to create the final designs.

Step 5: Animatic

Next to work on the timing of the video I put together an animatic along with the music I chose. 

Step 6: Motion Tests

On the Right: I set up a character rig using DUIK to animate the character playing guitar.  I am still working on my character animation skills and I had a really good time working on this.

On the Left: I wanted to add texture to the design so I worked on looping texture animations that I layered into the animation.
