Coffee Brake
Description'Coffee Brake' was developed by the Master of Animation and Visualisation 2023 students at the UTS Animal Logic Academy as part of the emerging visualisation technologies project.
Each year the masters students explore what new technologies are finding relevance in the animation and visual effects industries. In this particular year the students observed that realtime and open source animation technologies are increasingly being used in art departments for pre-visualisation as well as for production in TV and web series, games and cinematics.
Also, 2D graphic effects such that can be generated using plug-ins like 'Grease Pencil' are being seen more often in productions. Tasked with developing an idea for a short animation to be produced in the open source animation software 'Blender', the students developed a range of story ideas that were pitched to an industry panel (which selected 'Coffee Brake').
The students then had just 8 weeks to design, model, rig, animate, surface, add effects, light and composite this lively and engaging short film.
