This robot should have features similar to those of humans, such as two legs, two hands, and so on. Designing an unmanned aircraft, machine design or similar designs are not acceptable. I want to create a robot that can serve the family because I have watched some related videos. REFERENCE Fig1.1 Robot Reference,Week 13 (15/07/2024) I found that the cute and small robots in household robots are more popular among people. But I wanted to create a more practical robot. I drew on their common feature of having many arcs and then worked on it independently. I basically complete the operati...

Project 4-ABSTRACT MOTION 7/7/2025-28/7/2025(week 11-week 14) You Siyaun/0366978 Motion Graphic & Compositing-Project 4-ABSTRACT MOTION CONCENT INTRODUCTION TASK 4 REFLECTION INTRODUCTION Project 4- ABSTRACT MOTION Students are required to create an abstract dynamic graphic video based on a specific theme. This video should have excellent audio-visual effects (such as using 3D/2D, mixed media, or any experimental visual presentation forms), and it must have a distinct theme.  I plan to spend 30 seconds on a highly rhythmic and jazzy montage.  Our original intention was to create a compact and cohesive visual presentation, so I decided to use anime series like "Attack on Titan", "Sawman", and "Neon Genesis Evangelion" which have a strong sense of rhythm for the production. We began searching for relevant information online and decided to use their clips for the production. The video is mainly composed of clips from  anime, presented with energetic music...

It bridges the gap between "concept design" and "actual production". Through a series of static frames, creators can plan the rhythm, transitions, key shots, etc. of the animation in advance, greatly improving production efficiency and avoiding rework. Extract visual nodes from the script: first understand the script or narration content, then extract the key pictures that need to be shown. Draw sketches or collage reference pictures: the pictures do not need to be exquisite, but the composition, action direction and visual atmosphere must be accurately conveyed. Add actions, timelines and captions: the notes for each fr...
