Low Poly Rocket Animation

Polybooks

This was a great mini course for getting into animation and a some great modeling nuggets. It is very basic for modeling but great for beginners. I learned several things I did not know. 

I haven't done a video or used YouTube before so I hope this works.It doesn't like the URL to the YT video, so I post the link here.

    Congrats on completing the course Brad. The way the CGC logos jump I imagine is to simulate the rumbling of the powerful rocket? It is a bit too much though, you can tone that down a bit. Maybe the objects on the ground can vibrate a bit and the logos can stay in their place? Also at the very end you reach the edge of the back ground and at the top left you can see the background. Great job overall 🤙🏼

    Yeah, you had the same thoughts I did, but they are supposed to be craters, so they wouldn't move or shake. I crudely attempted to get the logos to shake and I didn't mind the exaggerations of how the shaking came out. It took some tweaking to get it to do that, I thought it was funny and wasn't really going for realistic in any way but over exaggeration. 8^]

    I was thinking to have one of the logos fall off after the shaking and another scene of the rocket flying with some movement in and out towards the camera and some rolling and clouds whizzing by but I was running out of time as I did spend quiet a bit of time on it and a lot  of what I'd like to do would bog me down and require a lot more time trying to figure it all out and experiment. Anyways, enuff of me rambles....8^]
