After Project 2, we have to create a small animation to make the scene more interesting :P
My first idea was let a ball hit the mug to make a small movement, but Professor Gaynor wanted the movement bigger so this was the result I got!
The animation
Animating the key frame was fun, I tried many ways of the hitting movement. I wanted the movement looks natural but also wanted audience notice that was CG.
Lighting process
The area of the movement I decided was a little bigger, also there was another item, a green ball, be added into the scene, so the lighting and compositing process would be a little bit complex.
Gain the area of spotlight: The mug will roll out of the scene, so I increase the area of the key light, letting the mug be lit always.
Create a matte: Two items in the scene with fast movement would let items hard to see, creating matte would be able to let me adjusted them separately.
Into Nuke
This the node tree in my nuke file.
Conclusion
It was an interesting project for me, I also learned a lot in the animation version, hopefully I would have time to come back tweaking it.
