Remember the old games that were 64-bit, 18-bit, or even 8-bit games? They used to be the bomb, the best graphics we've ever seen. Now, up to date, the graphics of today's standards are the greatest of all time. Today's graphics seem almost real, except for games that are MEANT to look like a cartoon game, such as Team Fortress 2, the basis of what I'm using for my project, or an old game, such as Minecraft. Some of the great games made by Valve have had some great animations, but how do they do it? That, my friends, is no longer a secret. Most of the games they make use an animator called Source Filmmaker, which I have been using, but to the least of my ability. My project is to learn how to animate like the great company, Valve, using Source Filmmaker.
The reason that I want to do this project is because of the following:
1. This is the first project that I get to CHOOSE what project that I WANT to do.
2. I've seen many people on Youtube make amazing videos of Team Fortress 2 game play and animation.
3. I'm fascinated by animation, and have tried to do my own, even though they were stop motion animations.
