The objective of the project was to create a short animation for an event. RIT holds various open figure drawing sessions through out the semester. I decided to create an animated figure drawing sculpture for the same.
Gesture drawing -
The building blocks of figure drawing
During the process of creating a gesture drawing, it is hard to make out what the drawing actually is. Focus is on the movement of the model, rather than detailed appearance. Similarly, the animation follows the movement of the vague, abstract lines to reveal the figure and the details of the event in the end.
The figure was modeled, rendered, and animated in Cinema 4D. Final editing was done in After effects, and sound was added later in Premiere Pro.

These are a few rendered stills from Cinema 4D.
