THIS PROJECT MARKS MY FIRST EXPLORATION INTO 3D ANIMATION, WHERE I MODELLED THE FLOWERS AND ENVIRONMENT FROM SCRATCH. THROUGH EXPERIMENTING WITH CINEMA 4D TOOLS, LIGHTING, AND CAMERA MOVEMENT, I CREATED A SHORT VISUAL STUDY EXPRESSING TWO CONTRASTING EMOTIONS. INSPIRED BY DREAMLIKE AND SURREAL AESTHETICS, THE BLOOMING FLOWERS SERVE AS A METAPHOR FOR SHIFTING MOODS. THE TWO-DAY RENDER REFLECTS THE PATIENCE AND GROWTH BEHIND THIS WORK.

CHALLENGE:
THE BIGGEST CHALLENGE WAS BUILDING EVERYTHING FROM SCRATCH WHILE LEARNING CINEMA 4D FOR THE FIRST TIME. MODELLING ORGANIC FORMS, WORKING WITH MATERIALS, AND MASTERING LIGHTING REQUIRED CONSTANT TRIAL AND ERROR AND A LOT OF SELF-LEARNING. BALANCING TECHNICAL SKILLS WITH THE EMOTIONAL STORY I WANTED TO TELL PUSHED ME TO EXPERIMENT, BE PATIENT, AND TRUST THE PROCESS.

APPROACH:
THE PROJECT BEGAN WITH FINALISING THE ART MOVEMENT, SURREALISM, AND STUDYING ITS CHARACTERISTICS, INCLUDING DREAMLIKE SPACES, UNEXPECTED FORMS, AND SYMBOLIC IMAGERY. I CHOSE TWO OPPOSITE EMOTIONS TO EXPRESS: GROWTH AND WITHER, AS A CONTINUOUS CYCLE.
WITH THE CONCEPT SET, I MODELED THE FLOWERS AND BUILT A SURREAL, OTHERWORLDLY LANDSCAPE. TEXTURES, COLOURS, AND LIGHTING WERE CRAFTED TO ENHANCE THE MOOD, WHILE CAMERA MOVEMENT AND ANIMATION BROUGHT THE SCENE TO LIFE, GUIDING THE VIEWER THROUGH THE EMOTIONAL TRANSITION.

RESULT:
THE FINAL OUTCOME IS A SIX SECOND LOOPING ANIMATION THAT CONVEYS TWO CONTRASTING EMOTIONS THROUGH A SURREAL, DREAMLIKE VISUAL JOURNEY. THE BLOOMING AND WITHERING OF THE FLOWERS CREATE A SEAMLESS EMOTIONAL CYCLE, WHILE TEXTURES, LIGHTING, AND CAMERA MOVEMENT FORM A COHESIVE AND ATMOSPHERIC EXPERIENCE.
AS MY FIRST FULLY SELF-BUILT 3D PIECE, IT SHOWCASES MY TECHNICAL GROWTH AND ABILITY TO TRANSLATE ABSTRACT FEELINGS INTO VISUAL STORYTELLING, DEMONSTRATING HOW A CONCEPT CAN BE BROUGHT TO LIFE IN A SHORT, LOOPABLE FORMAT.
