LegoDude goes to college

[tobinjim]

Hi all,

 

Thought I'd share my first public animation with a purpose! This is a short opener for a conference I'm helping with next week. LegoDude walks across the campus and enters the arts building (20 seconds; top frame is towards the end of that), then he enters the auditorium and walks down the aisle (a walk cycle down auditorium steps was fun!), climbs up onto the stage, then waves each arm to open each side of curtains (second image). After the curtains are open and the opening slide is onscreen behind him, LegoDude takes a bow (three different cameras capture this moment) -- last image.

 

Thanks for the help of all those who worked with me on the walk cycle learning.

P.S. I would post the animation, but I haven't come up with a good compromise between file size and lossy compression of what is some highly detailed imagery.

I like the feel of the auditorium seating ... the curtains are also very cool ...
