Modeling, UV Unwrapping, Texturing, Lighting & Rendering of “Through the Window”: A 3D Animation Short Film

Abstract

The way people express their thoughts is changing day by day. 3D animation is one of the new variations of these mediums. As modern technology is in its peak position right now, 3D animation process is now competent enough to express any story with the looks, colors and emotions of any real-life object or character. While our interest was in 3D animation, we also wanted to convey a message through a story relatable to our culture and society around us. So, we chose a story around child labor, which is a complex social problem in our country. It was our goal to articulate the story in a dynamic yet deep and understandable way through the whole process from story building to modeling, sculpting, texturing, rigging, animation, light setup, rendering and post processing. The final output of this project is a video footage that combine all the work that is done hopefully expresses the idea behind making it. We hope, this project will redefine the idea of 3D animation in our country
