As far as the modelling was concerned, the geisha dolls were fairly easy to manipulate and create. This was due to their circular structure, which varied in size and curvature. Although i did have a lot of trouble trying to measure them in the first place. I kept true to all of their measurements, which made everything loads easier in creation.
The fans were interesting to create, as i wasn't decided to have them open or closed. I knew if i had to open/close them in between still frames, i would have got very annoyed (due to me having to rotate each piece 5 degrees at a time). So i created two of each of the fans. One open and one closed. This made it easier for me to import and position swiftly.
Of all the things i modelled for this project, the thing i hated the most was the red geisha's sleeves. They were such an odd shape to create. They took far too long to create in the long run.
One decision i kept having to make was, to meshsmooth or not to meshsmooth. As all the dolls were smooth, in some instances the meshsmooth would deform the shape too much. So i applied it where i could.
