Animata



This week has been involved in the Animata program. Which is a shit program to use. Needs a control Z button or something and is a pain to use. Although it does do what its design to do if you operate it right. I liked my design that i created on Animata although it was simple enough compared to some others i think it looked effective and well designed. A flaw i found though was that when everyone tried to use their remotes that it would interfere with one another sometimes causing your remote to not register on the computer. The Animata system does has a basic set up that is quite easy to follow with bones, mesh and joints. Like a very basic puppet. although it seems to have a habit of slightly distorting images if the are moved to fast or to far. Now that we've started programing a Key board to send in H.I signals we should be able to "remotely" interface with our small animations. The physical side to setting it up seems easy enough and i get the process and how to achieve it but the computer data side i don't seem to grasp yet but it should be easy enough.
My animation image..
This is a still image but i had multiple layers with the waves moving, the fish jumps and the boat floated up and down.
