I have looked into a few different tutorials so far for my work. The first was posted in a previous post surrounding the 3D modelling of my characters for my short film. Another is one that is part of a four part series that goes through the basics of Adobe Character Animator that are published on the YouTube channel “Okay Samurai”, however the link to these tutorials are also in-built to the Character Animator software, therefore they are trustworthy examples.

I also had a brief look into scene creation on both Blender and Maya. However, the tutorials for Blender seemed to only be for very detailed scenes which isn’t the style I am really looking for, for my piece. Going on from this, I also originally chose to use Maya for my scene design because I wanted to have a wider knowledge of varying softwares to add to my portfolio. Also, from what I found, the tutorials for Maya seem to be a lot more recent and updated versions to the tutorials on Blender, and seem to be of a similar style to what I am trying to create.

Although, this first tutorial I looked at is slightly outdated,being on the 2014 version of Maya and not 2017. I believe it will still have similar tools that are still in the more recent versions of Maya. I also looked into a 2017 tutorial of Maya which shows a street creation and shows the basics of creating housing and the interior of a house. However, this tutorial doesn’t have any voice over, just background music, so it is a lot more difficult to follow, but is still helpful for my work. In addition, it is in a series, rather than just one video, hence I will be able to watch other tutorials from the YouTube channel “Sammie Good” that will help me towards creating my concept.
