Final Work

The story

The famous novel written in the Qing dynasty: A Dream of

Red Mansions

The Flowers’ Funeral is a classical plot in this novel: she uses

flowers as a metaphor for herself; also hints her sad ending.

Inspiration

Yi Shan_DSFA_A4

The camera work from 2010 version TV drama

But her lips’ movements are not easy for me to make the lip-sync

And also her voice and background music are strange

I record my lips.

Find another reciting resource

Find a pink background since the drama makes the mistake

Lip movements

But it is different from the

lip movements when she

is crying

Observe my lip and find the similarities

Six basic lips

Connection of different lips

You words should base on the

last word you speak

Prepare a mirror!!!!

I try……

But ERROR

After Effects

Add the beginning and ending

Add close-up to some parts I think camera works really strange

Add two green-screen effects

Thanks my classmates’ help!

The end

I plan to do something like what TV drama does.

To give a close-up to trees and add the special effects.

But strange

Things learned

Maya is very easy to quit. So you have to save it as frequently as possible.

Just render one frame first.
