As we continue to move toward the completion of the Alpha phase of The
Land of PurFUNple, one of Click Bug Studio’s founders, author of our story
line and lead graphic artist, Cindi Blandford has dug into the creation of all
the characters in the kingdom.Working
from her original sketches, Cindi has created 3 dimensional clay models of all
the characters including meticulous painting and accessorizing of each.As you can see from these photos, the
characters are starting to come to life, taking on a personality of their
own.
One of the advantages of creating these models is the elimination of a
lot of hand created animation.Johnny
Carpenter, founder and Director of Audio & Video Production, is going to
put each character on a turntable and index the turntable to move 360 degrees,
taking a still picture every 5 degrees.The result is the creation of files that can be used to animate the
character movement instead of creating them in other software.That saves us time and money.Brilliant!
