Teabag Tower - Work In Progress #2

Added 2024-09-07 22:49:19 +0000 UTC

This is the second WIP post of Teabag Tower, the animation you voted on last week! These posts are aimed to give you insight into my workflow and show you my creative process. Below is a segmented list with images and GIFs of everything I accomplished this week!

You can also find a full preview animation of what I completed this week in a .mp4 file below!

Animation

This week I focused mainly on animating Legacy so I could move onto proper simulation in the environment. In the attachments for this post there is an .mp4 file with the full animation preview. Some timings have to be revised but so far it's at a point where I can work on other things, such as the environment!

This is a small snippet of the animation.

Environment Creation

I focused on recreating a mall environment for this animation. Having shops is an important part of a mall and conveniently I had purchased a storefronts pack from Kitbash3D a couple years ago!

A shot of the majority of the environment.

I've also been focusing on moving environments, such as escalators and fountains. Having moving objects is essential to make an environment feel more alive, and eventually I'll be adding more scene movement (such as fire alarms and crowds).
