For my final for advanced animation, I knew I wanted to do an action sequence. A chase scene/battle was what I had in mind. I knew that I wanted to use an android/alien type of character for the antagonist and he came out exactly as I hoped he would. For the protagonist, I wanted to have a human, buff, pilot type. However, as I created him, that is not how he came out. He ended up very thin and rounded so I gave him a suit with a rubber texture and used him as an alien. This worked out better because it allowed me to do things during the battle that likely would not have made sense with a human. I also wanted to add in special effects. However, Mayas special effects are rather taxing on computer power and quite a few of the things that I wanted to do just where not possible with the computers afforded to me. However, I was able to add some effects in with After Effects and in the end I really thought that gave me an extra opportunity to become a little more familiar with After Effects as a program. In the end, I was really happy with how my project turned out, though there are a few things that I would like to clean up before putting it in my portfolio.
