Of all the animations to have the most technical difficulties and to sap my motivation the most while working on, I was not expecting it to be the boring blocky sniper rifle.
Originally the walls and ceiling were more vibrantly textured, but something between the glass blocking world light, trailing volume scatter, noise threshold and other shenanigans, I had to make the scene flatter and more boring lest the background look like a new magic eye puzzle every frame.
Also I found the Seeker Rifle to be a pretty ergonomically terrible weapon, especially during the reload with that ejecting pump, and also it looked really front heavy too, hence the bounciness and wobbliness that emerged during the transitions. Otherwise, tried my best to add a bit of style and energy to my favorite, but admittedly most mundane weapon in the Dead Space franchise, including the exaugurated donkey-kicking recoil and making it from the ground up with the graph/curve editor. I still think it's jank but now it's advanced jank!
Made in Blender 3.4 and rendered in Cycles at 60 FPS with a noise threshold of 0.1 and 5000 samples. All the animations have different render settings as I was finding out which setup I like the most. This wasn't it chief.
And lastly, the song used is "Foxtrot" by Tigerblood Jewel and Epidemic Sounds. As the sequel dials everything up from the first game, I needed a more actiony song to accompany it, but still one with some build up.
Thanks for watching, stay tuned for two more and have a good one!
