LIA - Blender


For our final project, we had to create a scene and an animation using the Blender software.

Part 1 - Blender Scene

ps: I got the inspiration from an alley close to my street, as I ocasionally pass throught it at night d:



Final Result



Part 2 - Blender animation

My initial idea was a little story, about a girl walking alone at night in a dark alley. She would then get frightened when she hears an unsettling sound, only to find a cat beneath her feet.

Final Result



Unfortunately, I was too ambitious with my idea and had to dial it back. So, instead of making a person and animating it in blender, I decided to use the camera, making it seem like it is coming from someone's POV. Then I made the interaction with the cat from something sweet to something silly (especially with the jumpscare at the end lol).

Final reflections: I am quite happy on how this project turned out and I cant believe I did it all in Blender. It was a lot of fun working in it and creating my own environnment. But this project also made me realize how hard animation really is even if I only did 20 seconds haha... For an example, I initially wanted the cat to be able to walk with its legs, but after hours of trying to figure out the mechanics, I just couldn't take it anymore.
