Portfolio project

RP1 is a self-initiated animation featuring RoboParty's ROBOTO 01, an open-source humanoid robot. The film explores its design through close-up details, X-ray views and a series of animated movements.

PROJECT OVERVIEW

The idea was to introduce the robot through both its construction and its movement. The film starts with a look inside the body, then follows the robot through lifting, running and jumping sequences. White backgrounds give way to dark sets, with blue accents drawn from RoboParty's branding.

INTERACTIVE VIEW

PROCESS

I started with RoboParty's CAD files, preparing the assembly for animation in Cinema 4D, modelling the missing hand cover and building the rig. The animation was developed in four sections, with the movements and edit timed to the soundtrack.
Lighting focused on the shape of the shell and the details of the joints. The scenes were rendered in Octane, then composited in After Effects, where I added the X-ray graphics and transitions. I also adapted the model for an interactive view so visitors can explore the robot and see its internal components.
Tools: Cinema 4D, Octane, After Effects, Three.js.

BEHIND THE SCENES

OUTCOME

The finished project brings together a short product film, a set of stills and an interactive model. The film shows the robot in motion, while the viewer offers a closer look at its construction.
