It's a prop from a short film I was working on at the time. The title was an attempt at click bait, Russian leaked Alien Footage would be another example.

The first time I worked on proper hand keyed cutscenes and the last main stream game I worked on.

@@ezromation that's sad man. I always thought the game looked good due to the limitations of the console. I can't thank you enough for the memories you gave me. Did you help with anything else like how the game went or the script

@@tylerlemay2826 I was hired to model and texture, so I did some of that but needed to move back to animation as there was too much work for the animator that was hired to do it. He then quit and shifted to another studio so I did most of the cutscenes. I think the writing was handled by Scholastic who are a huge book publisher, this was their first time publishing a game. I used to get the audio with the voice actors, I would time out the action and storyboard. Then make as animatic with the backgrounds and characters in Max then go to animation. So I basically got to direct them as well as animate. Time pressure was mental because I needed to wait on Scholastic to approve storyboard and animatic, towards the end I think we dropped either storyboard or animatic I can't remember which. However any notes they did give I used to push back on very hard due to tight schedule and they would drop most of their notes. I managed to get help from a freelance animator but it ended up not really being help as I pretty much re did or fixed all of his work. It was a crazy crazy project and I was totally exhausted by the end of it but I think I pretty much hit deadline. Animators do not usually get any say over script or "how the game goes". I got a lot more influence than is normal on the cutscenes as I did the camera direction and edited the audio of the voice actors together which is not normally an animators job. The shot we are commenting on which is GG transforming was my idea. The initial idea was to show the transformation with a shadow on the wall but the in game shadows were very basic and it was not working at all so I had the idea for a texture change and sticking the wings on. As an animator you can sneak ideas into game if you're lucky, but this is usually the designers job and they don't want you to (because it's their job) you can add cute stuff to animation of course. For another game I worked on called Timesplitters I designed Robofish and I think he's the only character in all of the games in the series. I think it's pretty unlikely they would let an animator do that these days. For Horrorland the plan was to shift to environment artist and props as I was being asked to do a lot of motion capture clean up which I hate. As you can see pretty much the opposite happened and I ended up doing a ton of hand keyed animation. These days I mainly animate for TV on kids series.

No I make TV now haven't been working in games for years.

I understand.

Thanks it's crazy to think that I did it 11 years ago.

Yes he is still alive.

@@DrasticFox2004 lmao wdym same

I didn't make the models, they were built in Max. Usual start point is a poly primative like a cylinder. You then add edge loops cut in new faces or extrude faces, you can also weld verts and edges. Best do a search on building low poly characters if you want an overview or have a look at this derangedscratchings.blogspot.com/2011/10/orc-warrior-3-poly-model.html

Aliens....they react to each other, could it be chemistry?

Thanks I might make a web series, I'm an animator but I like making characters too. I made a 6 minute short but it took so long to do. ua-cam.com/video/k_F5oVNjhpo/v-deo.html

If you put blood in then it's not appropriate for younger audiences. Alcohol is an even bigger no no. That's a test for Mind candy. If you want some blood watch my short film Science Lab ua-cam.com/video/o6GCGzJtp5g/v-deo.html

I am an animator, when I animate I don't usually work with the final version of sound. Voice acting should be final but sound effects are added later. You are looking at the file I worked with when I created the cutscenes for this game.

ezromation Oh ok.

Early devleoption

Edit: foraging ants.......

+Kremert I did work on other cutscenes but the ones on my channel are the ones I animated from scratch. The last one was done by a freelancer, I altered it lots but it's not entirely my animation so I don't show it. I don't think I have a copy of it anymore.
