Happy new year, everyone!
I made this cartoon-ish character animation with floating texts for seasonal greeting. Because as someone who was always loving character arts and have designer background, I decided to focus more on motion graphics and 3D for design thing to express themes in this year.
Behind the scenes
Composition
Composition was done on After Effects. I rendered the background (a simple gradient) and the character/objects separately, combined them and background pattern images on AE, and then added a camera animation to make the render look dynamic.
Modelling
Since the base mesh was outdated as it was made in the early days of my 3D journey, I fixed its topology as well.
