Project 4

Description

For my project 4, I decided to create a rainbow road roller coaster. The 'Cart' that I used is a small King Boo model that I made (he's my favorite Mario Character). Overall the biggest challenge I found was the camera angles. Trying to figure those out took a long while, and it's still kind of wonky, but overall I'm proud of my work.

Story Board

Here are my story boards. I originally wanted to pan onto the course so you could see everything, but I couldn't figure it out so instead I just playblasted King Boo going through the course as well as the first person view.

Animation Principles

Anticipation

In the animation that you see, I have Boo anticipate (this also relates to Slow In Slow Out) right before he starts the race.

Slow In Slow Out

At the start and end of the animation boo slows down, giving that slow in slow out effect.

Staging

I also added a globe in the background to add staging to the course. This also matches the original style of the course.

Finally, Here's the Animation:
