This is the final video!
I am actually super proud. I put so much effort into researching effects, looking at adverts for inspiration and have spend so long trying to do every element of the process to the best of my ability including the animation, audio, the editing, modelling and shading.
There are definitely some elements that I could have done better. After submission, I am going to go back in and change the liquid sim where the can and the peaches fall into the water. I also might change some of the audio. The parts where I did the voice over in the middle, I think I could have made the echo a bit stronger etc.
One thing I didn’t end up doing which I don’t mind but think I should change next time. I need to add a subdivision surface modifier to the can to make it smoother. There are parts where you can see the polygon faces, I wanted to change them, but when I did it messed with the UVs and I couldn’t find how to fix it.
I am looking forward to my skills getting better and able to pull off more complex simulations. I had way more abstract ideas in my head but wasn’t unable to pull it off because of my skill set. I looking forward to learning and getting better so I can create the idea in my head without hesitation.
Doing this ad has solidified me wanting to pursue animations for commercials.
