SPIRAL CLOUDS and Figure animation 1

The spiral clouds were pretty basic. I just decided to simply draw the assets by hand, scan them in, edit and colour them on adobe illustrator and that’s it.

The clouds provide a transition for the figure to move into the cinema 4d forest scene.

One thing I experimented with was playing with the scale so when the figure moved through them, this gave them the appearance of being moved through. It also made them appear more soft and floaty, which is basically what clouds are supposed to be like. That’s pretty much it.

The figure is supposed to transition from eye to floating to praying to creating and dancing with a woman.

So far I have done the transition of him forming from an eye. But this is a rough version, its only meant to be decent enough for the animatic. The frames have been drawn on cut pieces of paper and traced via a lightbox. The animation has also been inverted to stand out against the black background. I am thinking of changing the figure back to black during a scene transition.
