WEEK 7

Hey everyone,

So this week we are going to make sure in class that everything is all set up for us to start animating. We'll just go over everything during our team meeting, and then for class we will fix up everything if need be so that we can get those shots done!

~WEEK SIX~

Hey everyone,

So Week 6's class is going to be very hectic, I changed our Production Pipeline around so we'll go over that in the meeting and discuss how things are going to be worked out.

Things that should be done by the end of class that were started last week is mainly just Hubert's texture Jeff said he'd snag and Hubert's rigged which Naomi is working on. We need them for scenes ASAP.

But again we'll go over all of this in the meeting.

AUDIO is due at the end of the class, so let's shoot for 3:00 on that. Nathan and I have done 75% of it but I have to work on other stuff and so I schedule two people I for that for this class to work on and that again is on the new Production Pipeline which I will post in our Network Share once I get to school.

WEEK FIVE

Hey everyone,

As of now our audio is pushed back to a new due date of week 6, so week 5's class is going to be a lot of figuring that out plus continuing work on whatever modeling we need to get done.

For the group meeting we'll go over what everyone has done thus far and just have a very busy class as far as getting everything where it needs to be so we can whip out those shots when we have our scene and the first few characters rigged.

Week FOUR

Hey everyone,

Today in our group meeting we are all going to present things we have been working on thus far, just to make sure everyone is on track.

The environment people are going to sit down together and make sure that we have everything we need and if we don't we will be modeling those in class to make sure we get that done.

It's basically just going to be a very busy work day.

WEEK 3

Hey everyone,

As of now Doug hasn't e-mailed me back on our music critiques so we will probably have to go ahead and do it ourselves, we can discuss our options in class at the meeting.

The toad low poly is done, we just need to tweak the toes a bit but the rig and texturing is underway and later one Steve was mentioning a way to switch out the lower poly for the high poly model.

This week we are still working on assets and getting everything ready for animating.

I will post more later after our group meeting and class.

Week Two

Global Production Timeline

Shot List


Hey everyone,

The above link should go to our global production as well as our shot list. Please check it and see what you have assigned and when it should be done. If anyone has any questions about when something is due, it's the week after it is no longer schedule in your time period to get it done. So if you have week 4 - 6 to get it done, week 7 it should be done and ready to go.

With Hubert so everyone knows, I am going to have a friend zbrush him and then it's going to be sent off to Naomi for texturing and rigging.

Also with the soundtrack, we have until week 5 to figure it out so we'll have to see where we are after Doug does some revisions and then we'll go from there.

For environment objects please keep in touch with Nathan, we need a lot of trees/foliage. The sooner on that the better so we can get lighting and everything perfect for week 5. Week 5 it HAS TO BE DONE. The shot 1 environment is different for our opening scene, so that needs to be done week 4 textured, lit and everything.


That's basically where we are at right now, just continue working on whatever you are assigned. Please note characters should be z-brushed at least a little bit to get some good detail in there. Thanks everyohe

Week 2 Class

Hey everyone,

As stated in the e-mail I sent out I finished our Production Pipeline and attached it so everyone should have a copy of this.

We also have the start of Doug's music, so please take a look at that and we'll discuss it in class about what we were all thinking and the areas to improve upon.

This week we will continue to work on assets, getting everything ready to start the animation week 4, as well as the first scene which is just an environment shot but that will be started next week.
