Virtual Anatomy - Animation Of Constricting and Expanding Throat

Constricting Throat

Expanding Throat

Virtual Anatomy - Modelling the Throat Contracting and Expanding

I used the throat model and started by key framing it, then I selected the edge loops and scaled them smaller and key framed it so when played it looks like it is constricting.







I repeated this but scaled the edge loops bigger so when played it looks like it is expanding instead of constricting

Virtual Anatomy - Animation Of Attacking Cells

Virtual Anatomy - Modelling The Mass Cells

First of all I started by copying a piece of chewed up food from the throat and then surrounding it with green spheres which represent the mass cells acting the food.





I then added a key frame and moved the green spheres so they look attached and key framed them again, I then created small spheres and copied them and moved them randomly so they looked like bubbles of histamines.

After I key framed the bubbles, I moved them inside and key framed them again. Then I copied the throat cylinder and rotated it and surrounded the food with the cylinder.

Virtual Anatomy - Modelling The Throat

I started with a cylinder and cut it up using the insert edge loop tool, then i extruded out the faces with wider gaps between the edge loops to give a ridged effect.







I then copied the ridged cylinder, rotating and moving into the position shown in the render below









After I created a flap covering the wind pipe and textured it in a pink lambert colour like skin and created some chewed up nuts in the esophagus which I textured in different shades of brown on a lambert shader, then to get a perspective as if travelling around the body, i put a camera pointing down the ridged cylinder so you could see the perspective that the food would be taking
