Review on Resident Evil Degeneration.


Juz finished watching a new 3D animation by CAPCOM.
based on their own franchise. "Resident Evil".
The movie title is .
Resident Evil : Degeneration.
I won't talk about the storyline now.
cause its all about personal benefits by using viruses that infect people and make them become a zombie.
errr... if anyone of you aren't interested in 3D.. i guess you can close this window now.

ok.

modelling wise. i dun really like it.
the shoulders are big, and high, for a female.
the character modelling wasn't that good.
i dun really like Leon's modelling though. He looks sucks than he's in Resident Evil 4 (game).
and Claire's modelling also not that good also.
her lips was so not natural, but i guess the team juz trying to make looks cuter.
but i love the original modelling of Claire, that appear on PS2 years ago.
and for the mapping skills. i think the style was abit too clean.
Everything seems so perfect, clean, and shiny.
The objects was too clean.
and the skin of the characters are juz too fair and godlike.
I hope they can do something like Silent Team (the team that make Silent Hill) characters' modelling.
at least the skin mapping texture have some dirty parts or spots.

motion wise...
the walking motion doesn't look natural to me.
even though that was performed by motion actors.
other motion was quite ok.
and.. one more thing.
their hands contact didn't really achieve a 100% contact.
example like.. when they hold stuff, if you notice clearly.
some scene their hands like juz off the objects alil bit.
so.. it looks kinda odd to me when i saw that. cause.. after all, thats from CAPCOM.
so.. i really expect as much as like what i expected in Square-Enix movies.
other than that.
i can really feel the weight of everything.
i can see and recognize the face expression.
every acts was ok.
oh ya, forget one last thing =.=
their lip synching.
didn't look obvious and accurate to me.
hope CAPCOM will notice that.
but i'm sure that they won't happen in their games though.

lightings.
i like it. and i finally understand.
the meaning of confusing lighting.
after i watch the show.
every lighting of the scenes look really good.
like it alot. =)
CG effects, good, but can be better.
maybe i juz expect too much from them.
cause i'm used to and looking forward to Square-Enix standard.

well.. the whole animation.
lightings modelling effects and everything.
i give... 3.5 of 5.
=) does anyone actually read this??? =.=

hope that i can achieve that level.
then advanced to square-enix level.
then become more and more better =).
HOPEFULLY lar.
