General Old Iron The Rift Part 3 Comic Animation - Audio Version

---  

So on the suggestion of avatarvyakara on @DeviantArt I decided to animate another scene from an ATLA comic. This one featuring the spirit General Old Iron from the ATLA comic the Rift Part 3.

Had a fun time working on this one after cutting it out and doing some patch work. I rebuilt the scene in C4D projecting the image on to some geometry. Most of it is just planes, spheres, cylinders, etc...

Except General Old Iron, him I model very very loosely starting from his left foot up. Not sure why I started there I just did...Built him up so that the Geo covered him in the image completely . Then I made a simple rig for him that would let me move his left leg, right arm, and head, which where the parts I animated. Binded it to the geo and animated it.

Then I did a simple move on the camera and rendered it in 3 parts. Foreground, water, and background. Then I composited it in After Effects and added in all of the extra effects and did the sound design.

There are a few issues that I tried to cover up. I didn't really think of his out fit in the way it would really would work. So I have a extra piece of "cloth" geo in the front to cover up some parts which should have been in the back if it was a real outfit. The alignment is off a bit but hopefully it's not too noticeable...
