Clip 1

Creating the first clip for the animation i found to be the hardest, being that i had never created a scene like this before. Once i had created the scene i imported the fox model into the scene. I positioned the fox by the watering hole as this is where the fox is place in the story board i created. I found a good view for the fox and used ctrl C to create a camera in the position.
I worked on the scenery more with the fox in place. Using the water technique we learned in a tutorial i create the watering whole. I gave all the components in the scene textures. This meant the animation was good to start.

I had to create the fox drinking animation in the time line, with the fox kneeling down far enough for his head to reach the water. I used the rotate tool to turn the fox's head to give the impression the fox was drinking. I tried to use reactor on the fox's head to make ripples in the water as he drinks, but the head fell off every time. The animation look good as it was and i felt the fox looked like he was drinking.
The end of the scene the fox hears foot steps, using the time line i moved the fox limbs to give the impression the fox was standing back up, with him turning his head in the direction of the noise.

The lighting used in this scene and every scene is a spot light for casting the shows, and an omni light to give the impression of atmospheric light.
