One thing I've learned through taking on new hobbies and skills is that getting too excited and diving into a project too quickly without the proper prep is the easiest way for me to get discouraged. For my first 3D animation class, I made sure to watch it through and do my research before getting started. I found this picture which inspired the idea of a skincare brand and helped me decide what shape I want to work with for my product. I think I'm going to make an animation for a skincare brand called Flute, which uses ingredients from grapes for probiotic and antioxidant properties so I want to be inspired by glassware for the product bottle.
