Artefact 4 and Evaluation

Artefact 4 This artefact is an extension on artefact 3, it used more intense emotions to show a bigger difference between personalities making the change more dramatic. The feedback showed that the character in pain was more well produced although without the more sombre character the contrast may not have shown this. Some of the animation was slightly glitchy and the sound effects in the background had to space in the realm that this artefact created making the realism of the piece lacking slightly. It was also found that the intense movements of the man in pain was a main contributor to the success of that personality/emotion. This shows similarity from the findings of the research document and possibly shows that the use of incidental gestures and postures should be used a lot in animation if not in such an extreme manner. In conclusion the idea of using split personalities in a character has been a success and has shown how to create differences between individual emotions without the manipulation of the look of the character. In the next artefact, creating a personality from individual limbs, gestures or posture may be important as a look at the interconnection between these individual elements.
