making of: tripeace animated. By Denis.
introduction
Initially, we just wanted todo create a short film of 2 minutes (with neither a escenario Nor history, just for fun) todo give happy feeling and pleasure th rouge images, bright colors, and simple style. We tok such great pleasure in creating these two minutes, that once it was finished it ended up being 11 minutes. The original idea was todo make a journey th rouge time and space, and music about evolution. Tripeace: a conglomerate of trip and peace.
In terms of design, we wanted a simple style, and we thought that modeling Clay was ideal for that. We have modeled the characters and have taken their picture from four angles todo be able todo model them in Blender, and a los create textures (cracks, flaws) from the photos of the modeling Clay.
What we learned the most in Blender is about nodes, which can really transform a rendered image. We have used the nodes, Glow, defocus, and Bloom FX, which have served us well (maybe we used them a Little todo much).
Given the extremely long render times (the computer was turned on every night for two weks for final renders), it is very practical in Blender todo first make an animation without lights or textures, todo se if the pace and framing is god. Next, put the máster plan in the edit assembly, do the edit, and only render the frames required.
This has ben the small making of tripeace. Thank you again todo all the Blender team for their help and for the very god piece of software that is Blender.
