Rendering scenes.

Below are just some examples of the rendered scenes I created, I have not included them all because they are simply just slightly different because of camera angles, or because they incorporated the same techniques.

This particular scene is when the burglar walks up to the front of the prison cell and puts his hands onto the bars, this was achieved using the absolute layer in CAT where I animated the movement by key framing, I also animated the head so it looked down wards, and key framed the eyes moving with the head to look down at the ground to give a sad emotion.

This is another shot of the burglar when he walks into the prison, I animated the head so it looks down at the ground, and I used the technique I learned so that the character followed a path which a dummy was path constrained to, I used this technique a lot as I allowed me to create custom paths, I also used the 'Pick-ground' option in the global settings as this made the character walk on the particular surface I selected.

This is another example of where I used the dummy path constraint technique to make the police man follow a path I drew.

This scene shows a close up of the character looking at the wanted poster, I used the key frame technique here to animated the character blinking, using the slider tools I previously set up.

This scene is where the policeman bumps into the robber leaving an incident, I had the robber do a creeping walk, and the policeman was walking, I wanted to change both so that they gradually starting running to create a chase scene, to do this was quite simple, I applied two layers in the CAT motion, one creeping/walking layer and then another running layer, it was just then a case of using the key framing technique to decrease the initial walk and increase the run, this meant that both character went from their initial walk into a run to give the impression that the policeman was trying to catch the robber.

This is another angle of the scene where the policeman is looking at the wanted poster, I created the poster using a rendered image of the robber and just cropped his face and applied it to a distressed paper material I downloaded and added the text, I deliberately added the spelling mistakes to try make it comical and also the use of the old fashion western style wanted poster was deliberate, to give a discrepancy in the style of the animation.
