Window Frame

Continuing on with the mini brief, I next need to build the frames of the window.

To do this, I created a cube, resized it to fit within the border of the window. I cut out the front and the back of the cube. I manually selected each edge of the hollowed cube, Extrude with the Local Translate Z by 0.2, then selected Bridge, which filled in the inside of the frame.

At first, I used the Thickness option for the Extrude, but the hollow cube wouldn’t Bridge afterwards. If I Extruded outwards, it would clip through the window, but if I Extruded inwards, the cube would invert.

This was fixed when I toggled the Local Translate Z option, which I had no issue with and it Bridged perfectly.

The inner frame in both the top and bottom areas, were showing a black striped face. I tried Googling how to fix this and also numerous different ways to change it (such as deleting the face and re-bridging) but nothing worked. Then when I treat these faces as blackened faces and just reversed the mesh, they both became fully grey.

With these newly fixed faces, I used the original tutorial once again, but hit a bump when I realised that I don’t know how to (successfully) add new segments to a mesh. I found a new Youtube video that explained different methods of adding Edge Loops and/or segments. I’d decided to go with the fifth method, which is to use the Connect Tool

It did take some trial and error to learn how to use this tool correctly. Because I have a tendency to use the camera hotkeys (which require the ALT key + mouse buttons) and since the mouse keys are integral to using the Connect Tool, I kept trying to use the camera hotkeys to move the segments and/or pinch the segments.

Happy with my framework, I decided to bevel the edges. Unfortunately, no matter which face or edge, I received the same error message,

“//Warning: Encountered a non-manifold vertex. Cannot Bevel.”

I could Bevel the outer frame, but the corners refuse to align.

Enter an object name of * to list the objects.

Verify Each Name to Be Purged?

Enter y to verify each name.

SPLINE

Creates a smooth curve that passes through or near a set of fit points, or that is defined by the vertices in a control frame.

Find

SPLINE creates curves called nonuniform rational B-splines (NURBS), referred to as splines for simplicity.

Splines are defined either with fit points, or with control vertices. By default, fit points coincide with the spline, while control vertices define a control frame. Control frames provide a convenient method to shape the spline. Each method has its advantages.

To display or hide the control vertices and control frame, select or deselect the spline, or use CVSHOW and CVHIDE. However, for splines created with control vertices in AutoCAD LT, you can display the control frame only by selecting the spline.

The prompts differ, depending on whether you choose Fit or CV (control vertices) as the creation method (Method option).

First Point

Specifies the first point of the spline, either the first fit point or the first control vertex, depending on the current method.

Next Point

Creates additional spline segments until you press Enter.

Undo

Removes the last specified point.

Close

Closes the spline by defining the last point to be coincident with the first. By default, closed splines are periodic, maintaining curvature continuity (C2) along the entire loop.

Method

Controls whether the spline is created with fit points or with control vertices. (SPLMETHOD system variable)

Fit

Creates a degree 3 (cubic) B-spline by specifying fit points that the spline must pass through. When the tolerance value is greater than 0, the spline must be within the specified tolerance distance from each point.

Control Vertices (CV)

Creates a spline by specifying control vertices. Use this method to create splines of degree 1 (linear), degree 2 (quadratic), degree 3 (cubic), and so on up to degree 10. Adjusting the shape of a spline by moving control vertices often provides better results than moving fit points.

Object

Converts 2D or 3D quadratic or cubic spline-fit polylines to equivalent splines. The original polyline is retained or discarded depending on the setting of the DELOBJ system variable.

Prompts for Splines with Fit Points

The following prompts are specific to the fit point method.

Knots. Specifies the knot parameterization, one of several computational methods that determines how the component curves between successive fit points within a spline are blended. (SPLKNOTS system variable)

Chord. ( Chord-Length method) Spaces the knots connecting each component curve to be proportional to the distances between each associated pair of fit points. An example is the green curve in the illustration.

Square root. (Centripetal method) Spaces the knots connecting each component curve to be proportional to the square root of the distance between each associated pair of fit points. This method usually produces “gentler” curves.

Uniform. (Equidistant method). Spaces the knots of each component curve to be equal, regardless of the spacing of the fit points. This method often produces curves that overshoot the fit points.

Start Tangency

Specifies a tangent condition on the starting point of the spline.

End Tangency

Specifies a tangent condition on the ending point of the spline.

Tolerance

Specifies the distance by which the spline is allowed to deviate from the specified fit points. A tolerance value of 0 requires the resulting spline to pass directly through the fit points. The tolerance value applies to all fit points except the starting and ending fit points, which always have a tolerance of 0.

Prompts for Splines with Control Vertices

The following prompt is specific to the control vertices (CV) method. (SPLMETHOD system variable)

Degree

Sets the polynomial degree of the resulting spline. Use this option to create splines of degree 1 (linear), degree 2 (quadratic), degree 3 (cubic), and so on up to degree 10.

Exploring 3D Animation & Rigging

18/02/2021

RP4222  - Post 16 

Time has been spent recently looking into tutorials on 3D animation and rigging for potential model comparisons.  There are many online tutorials through YouTube and Udemy that are helpful.  One of the first websites to be viewed was the Autodesk Maya website, (Autodesk, 2021), in hoping to further knowledge and understanding of the subject.  This had a series of short videos of setting up a rig for a model 3D Lion and then animating to completion.  However, this was more showcasing what could be achieved through animating in Maya rather than any useful information.  However, another part of the Autodesk website did contain useful information about 3D animation, its uses and the industries it is used in.  This lead to a series of articles on the subject as well as links to Autodesk tutorials located on YouTube.  https://www.autodesk.co.uk/solutions/3d-animation-software.  (Autodesk, 2021).

These websites linked explained the uses of the software and a break down of how characters can be animated.

Retexturing the room.

Because the UV’s on the room were not well made (image 1) I worked on remapping it completely. I remapped and realigned all the UV’s (from the walls). I used the checker texture to check the sizing of the pieces and make sure things line up. Tomorrow I will work on other objects from the room. To remap them as well.

To help me, I used the notes I made from Freark’s classes and some stuff I found online:

I found this video a few weeks ago https://youtu.be/975S-9URarQ and I thought it would work well for the beach running and wave over capsule parts of the surrealism sequence and it does render in Arnold, unlike the other ones I was finding. I made rounded blobs as the water pattern so that I could use it as a collider and have the water particles flowing around them. However, I tried following the tutorial exactly and the emitter stopped working after about 2 minutes and wouldn’t emit anything. 

https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/maya/learn-explore/caas/CloudHelp/cloudhelp/2018/ENU/Maya-SimulationEffects/files/GUID-F338DF02-88D8-47CF-B205-89F2448E888D-htm.html

From here I decided to ditch the tutorial and try using an object emitter independently and have the particles hit the water pattern (set to be a rigid object/collider) and then flow around them. What ended up happening was that they would hit the first row and then start wildly bouncing off in every other direction. To get this to render in Arnold I set it to render as spheres in both in the Shading and Arnold attribute menus for the particle effect. This would likely also solve the problem we had trying to get the particle cloud and galaxies to render. 

To get the particles to travel upwards and not also bounce off in every direction, I had to change the way they emitted so that they were emitting from the water pattern shapes themselves. That, however, meant that I needed to have them included in the scene rather than just being colliders, I tried to convert them into a water-like texture and it does distort like water/glass in the renders. In the viewport, the pattern looks invisible but you can see the particles moving around/inside it.

Scarlett had kindly given me the external shell model for the Rocket so I was able to put that with Veronika’s model and fixed texture in the scene. 

I gave the scene a more Dutch Tilt/Angle to get that off-kilter feel that the angle in the original panel had. This also ties in a little to Holly’s research into the distorted models/angles to get the look desired. Of course, I can’t quite replicate the panel exactly because most of the panels were drawn with just the capsule’s internal frame and not counting for the shell that would be over it but this twist adds a bit of interest into the shot rather than just having a front-facing camera.

For the 3D Animatic I tried to give it a bit more of a water feel by overlaying a solid blue layer with a very light opacity just to slightly tint it but this is what it normally looks like.

I tried to use this same emitter type to recreate the beach waves section and nearly had it working but it stopped working about 10 minutes before the deadline we’d set for things to be rendered out and I was having trouble with the camera/backgrounds. I will try and get that working and made into a scene either in the holidays or just after them. I will also try again with getting the particles to move around the water texture but this does also work.

Issue with the audio...

While working, the audio suddenly stopped working. I can’t hear it when I play the animation but I can hear it when I scrub through the animation. Then I read through some articles and other people set it to real time and I wasn’t sure whether I was correctly setting it to real time or not. 

I asked my lecturer what can I do and she suggesting removing and reimporting the audio and asked me to check whether the audio works in my earlier files. 

I removed the track and reimported them and checked my old files and the audio seems to be completely fine in those. I already put so much effort into the current file and the thought of working on a previous file was just... tiring. And I was worried about the time limit for 11 second club deadline. So I kept looking for more ways to get the audio working again because a lot of the people in the articles I’ve read have solved their problems and I had hope to solve mine too. My lecturer told me if it keeps persisting, import the animation I’ve worked on into a new scene and then add the audio track again.

I did somehow get to work! Apparently the icons where different from mine because of the different versions and after I figured this out and set it to real time, I got it to work! 

All the articles I read during this:
