What just happened?

We used the built-in scripting of iClone to sit the prop down on the rail. Don't be surprised if the can doesn't exactly go where you want it to. We can do some adjusting with the Move tool when necessary. iProps are still in their infancy and can have a few hiccups here and there.

We used the Look At command to direct our female character to watch continually at the male, which will add some movement to her character as well as improve the scene.

Altering the characters' clothing

This is another area that allows us to modify the characters' looks or in this case their clothing. As stated earlier, diffuse maps with bump maps and opacity maps can make new clothing or give existing clothing a new look.

If you will remember in Chapter 2, Creating Your First Scene, when using opacity maps anything that covers black will not show, such as their outer clothing. Anything covered in white will be visible so you can make a long sleeve shirt into a short sleeve shirt.

Let's alter the shirt that Jana is wearing.
