    Hi Odette!
    Well done on getting your first review out there :)
    You've obviously given this a lot of thought, and have embedded your quotes nicely within the text - be careful though that you don't 'over-quote'...that is, use a quote just for the sake of it, when you could perhaps paraphrase (paraphrasing also needs to be referenced in a similar way to the quote).
    A few more images might have been useful, especially since you spend a lot of time talking about the various colours used - some still showing the difference between the day and night shots perhaps.
    It's always worth re-reading what you have written, just to make sure that everything is as it should be and makes sense... I had a little chuckle at the 'red herring murderer' :)

    On a final note, please could you change the background of the blog to something a little darker... the white lettering on the pale pink background is really difficult to read!

Moom Platform: Blocking Removed and Graph Editor Improvements

Image
For this lesson we had to think about timing and had to try and a-just the animation to the characters movements by removing the blocking and trying to line up the time with the movement and the expressions. I found this lesson quite easy especially since I feel I am now more used to blocking and animating using that technique, however I am still not, I feel as comfortable with using the graph editor, but In the second video I think my attempt to try it on the hip CTRL worked well, and although I still feel like the animation needs some more cleaning, I think it's turning out rather well.

What if Metropolis Thumbnails 09: Building Design Progression 3: Hero Prop

Image
For this set of thumbnails I decided to look at the redesigns for the Opera, as I didn't like the ones that  I had originally composed in my first OGR. I decided to concentrate on structure, as well as the door design, but unlike the buildings, I had an idea of what door I liked, but I wanted it to look instead at a design that could appear to make the building more professional. Looking at the buildings in comparison, I like how the Opera does contains sharp and smooth elements from the individual building, while also standing out on its own, but like the others I will alter a few things from this design before constructing my final designs. I want to concentrate on colour for this building, along with the rest to try and continue the continuity between them.
