A playblast of a time......
Good lord, an animatic:
Yes, well......it goes for way too freaking long. For a one minute animation, it comes in at around two and a half minutes. Lot of chipping away to do yet. But at least most of my sound and shots are how I want them to be. For the most part, I intend to work up from here, tweaking all that is necessary and so on. What fun. At any rate, I'm just happy to see something moving at this point. Where I go from here is uncertain as there are many avenues to traverse. Chris and I have been playing around with different metal textures and bump mapping them so they look all weathered and old. For a robot that's been sitting motionless in the ice for centuries, he still looks a little too young, roughly over a year old, spending that year in the rain and gaining minimal rust on his frame. Still, I like how he looks with the temporary textures now, so things can only get better from here, logically speaking that is. I'll hang in there.

With the 5 week milestone come and gone and a new milestone set, its time to really get my head down and into the piece. I've stated that i will be up to the rendering stage by the end of term. Meaning ill will need to have all the camera's locked down, texturing and animating complete and lighting finalized. Im going to record the voices and narration this week and continue to animate and texture.
