Coursework by class of Illia Kapustin for motion designers / Курсовая работ по классу Ильи Капустина для motion дизайнеров

In the Spring of 2022, I started education on the course «Super Cinema 4D Pro». One chapter was recorded by Illia Kapustin. In this part, we studied creating motion clips from scratch.

The volume of knowledge was really huge. And I know only one way to memorize and consolidate any knowledge. It's many practice work. Moreover, the final task sounds extremely simple: «Create a motion video from scratch».

There was quite a lot to do.
I chose smartphone advertising as the theme of my future video. After creating an idea, I found references which visual be similar to my idea

Idea > references > scenario > sketches. In general, this is the way my workflow was moving. When I understood what will need for work has come a time to find and collect basic elements for creating animation - 3D models of objects. 
In this step, I decided to work on my 3D modelling skills, and all models for my animation were created by me. 


When I had all models which need for the project, was created a storyboard. It is the next iteration of the sketches when using real 3D models were made all scenes, without materials, for a future video.  
After that, technical animation (animatic) was created using storyboard's pictures. At this stage, I worked on a camera angle and transitions between scenes.

The next step was difficult and very interesting. The name of this part of the work is «Still frames». In this section, I thoroughly worked on maps, textures and materials and also had interesting work with lights.

On the step of «Draft render» an unambiguous understanding has come that a modern and powerful video card is not a luxury, but a necessity for motion designers.
On the Draft step, I have corrected the passes necessary for compositing and added some stylish features on transitions.

The sound design for this video was created​​​​​​​ Blinkaudio

Here I posted some lightening moments from the video


For this project: 
— I spent almost 2 months every day working;
— the general size of project folders is 132 Gb;
— the main folder contains 92 catalogues;
— was created and used in workflow 4 376 files.


Thank you for watching and appreciating!
