Assignment 1: Animation
Part 1: Pencil Animation
In this assignment, you’ll animate a pencil along a path to give the impression that it is writing your name in cursive writing.
Perform the following:
Create a pencil using basic modeling techniques and apply colors to the different sections of the pencil to enhance the look of the mesh. In addition, create a floor plane that will give the impression of a paper and a surface, like a table where the paper can sit on.
Create a path for the pencil to follow. The path should resemble your first name when written in cursive. Refine the path so there is a natural flow to the spline.
