Design principles for backgrounds

Here are some line drawings which I have tries to add clarity to them through using design principles such as balance, rhythm and harmony. With the first few I believe I achieved some clarity but color was not used properly in contrast with shading. As I went on I believed it became better.  

Clouds

First try in photoshop in regards to using tools such as the mixer brush, there is a lot to get my head around but it will seem second nature if i keep at it. The clouds need a bit more work and the background needs more colours to be able fit in more with the cloud design. Overall I am happy with it, I like it.

Cake

This is our cinematography group project. Who stole the cake!!!!!! Loved doing this project a lot fun, great way to work with Premiere Pro CC with shadows.

Animatic

This was a task set for storyboarding. Overall I believe that the animatic is very easy to follow I believe it went well. I know a lot more now about how Premiere CC works. If I was to do anything I think I would tidy up the drawings a bit more before making them into an animatic

Showreels

Here are my final showreels for this semester, enjoy.

Catching and throwing

Here is my 3D animation of catching and throwing a ball. This animation demonstrates the use of parenting constraints, I believe that I got the constraints mixed up through having the ball being the parent instead of the hands. But overall the animation does work. A little bit of work could be done at the end with the follow-through of the body.  

Diving

Here is my animation for a person diving with a splash, I need to add a few more frames for the person while falling into the water but apart from that I believe the splash and the board springing works very well.
