NEWTON'S CRADLE ANIMATION

grabcad

Project Scenario The main task is to create a 3D model of a chosen object and to produce an animated sequence of the object. This project was my second attempt using 3DS max 2009 software. Therefore it was quite difficult to get my head round because I had no experience of animating a 3D object before. I thought long and hard on the 3D model and the animation sequence, I did not want to produce something too overwhelming for my first animation so I decided to produce the famous office toy, the Newton's Cradle complete with office surroundings. The animation in my opinion went quite well for my first attempt. But at this stage I had not yet grasp the fundamentals of materials and lighting.
