Here is the background for the beginning of the animation, all the trees are on different layer so the camera can zoom in down the avenue toward the house in the distance, which I have modelled in Maya.
I have put these trees on separate planes in front of the house model in Maya so that I can set the camera to go through them and zoom to the house and into the kitchen window.
KITCHEN WINDOW ...
Here is a sketch of what the window will eventually look like once it's been modelled and the kitchen interior has been added to a plane and placed inside the model.
I need to place the below image of the kitchen inside the model on a plane and group it with the house in Maya so the plane moves with the house as the camera move in towards the house. If I didn't do this then the house would curve round and the plane would stay in the same place.
KITCHEN ...
This image will be placed on a plane inside the house model for the scene where the mouse jumps up onto the window sill and sneaks across to the pie. Drawing the kitchen will save me a lot of time, I would have liked to model the inside of the house as I wanted to concentrate on modelling and lighting, but as I'm doing this project on my own I don't think I'll have time to do so, which is a shame as I have enjoyed what modelling I've done so far this year.
This was meant to be the background for the mouse walking across the window sill to the pie, I wanted to have some of the surrounding area included to add more colour in the scene but unfortunately it was the wrong angle for the mouse to walk across.
I wanted to introduce some of the the surrounding area in this image to add a variety of colours but could because of the angle I animated the mouse at. I did think about changing the colour of the mouse from brown as the character gets lost in the background which is also brown.
This was going to be the background for my house to sit in but I decided against it as the trees would have been massive in comparison to the house as the plane it would have been on would have to much bigger than the others and therefore the image would have had to have been a lot smaller on the plane, and therefore I think would have taken the audience's eye off the house.
