Tree Animation

Published by Spider-Doo under , on 01:08
From the meeting with Dan Dali yesterday he mention about how everything moves slightly and nothing is static. Dan said about how the trees could move about in the wind. With us looking out at the window at the leave as they were blowing around. To have all this secondary animation in the background would make our whole animation move believable.
With this in mind I found a really good way of animating the trees and grass to sway in the wind a little bit.

This is what I quickly put together to show the rest of the group. The trees wouldn't blow about as much as in this video below, but I wanted to over exaggerate the movement of the trees.
Also, just as a test I put this on the rest Farm to test if everything was working as it should be.
These 100 frames took about 2mins to render out using 70 odd CPUs which was pretty GOOD ! : D
