Modelling and Animation Assignment

I have drafted a second, more detailed storyboard which contains all of the details about the animation necessary to make it the right length. It also contains all of the different camera angles for the whole animation, and describes exactly what will happen in each shot. This may not be the final storyboard but it is enough to use as a guide for creating the first version of the animation.

I have drafted a quick sketch of the storyboard to lock down the core ideas I have for my animation. A general key and very rough drawings show the camera angles I intend to use and the general narrative. The camera will begin flying over the Invisible Hand to give the viewer an idea of its huge scale, before panning to the right to show the Venator firing an EMP at the rear of the Invisible Hand. The hangar shields drop and vent everything out into space, then the Jedi Starfighter stealthily boards the ship before the shields come back up. Of course, this is a very brief and not detailed version. First draft storyboard

I searched the internet for any images of schematics and models of the ships I will be modelling myself. Unfortunately, I could not find any sort of proper blueprint or schematic, however I do have images of detailed models and cross-sections from different angles which will assist me in getting these models as accurate as possible. I have found the lengths of each ship from the official Star Wars universe so I can use the same scale for all of them. All of these images give guidance as to what the shape and size of each surface of the models should be. The Invisible Hand has a length of 1088m, the Venator destroyer has a length of 1137m, and the Jedi Starfighter has a length of 8 metres. https://unusualsuspex.deviantart.com/art/Invisible-Hand-ortho-435320924 https://tr.pinterest.com/pin/73113193921839820/ http://www.lacasamorett.com/foxgallery/venator-star-destroyer-wallpaper.html http://vesselyn.com/dmVuYXRvci1jbGFzcy1zdGFyLWRlc3Ryb3llci1zY2hlbWF0aWNz/ http:

To decide which models to use, I watched a few clips from Star Wars films. The idea I had required some extra details which meant I needed to find the right ship to model, such as one with a hangar. After deciding upon using models based on ships in the third Star Wars film, I used Google image search to find images of the right ships, and discover the names for them. The Venator Class Star Destroyer is the Republican ship, and the Invisible Hand is the Separatist ship owned by General Grievous in the film. The Jedi Fighter will also be used. I had pasted all of the ships into a mood board together along with some extras and the following idea came to me: the Venator ship will fire an EMP blast at the Invisible Hand, and the shields at the rear will drop, allowing for the Jedi fighter hidden under the Invisible Hand to stealthily fly into the hanger before the shields are restored. As a result of this idea these are the three models I will definitely be using for my animation. I have a
