Week 4: Production Schedule

Hey guys, I've updated the production schedule for the week, obviously changed it because Matt has finished his modelling and rigging, Also I think we would like to spend a little longer on modelling considering how good the results are, and we can obviously spend less time on texturing now because we found it will be easier texturing on the large flat planes we have for the sides of the buildings. Anyways heres the plan.

Week 4: Summary

Hey guys, just thought I would re-cap this week. So basically we all kinda got into it. Matt is really cracking on with the cat model and animating, starting to test that out. Kanika is modelling the room and working on alot of the props for that section in there. As for me, Sam and Jeff we have all cracked on with the main modelling. Jeff is looking at that first street, Sam is on the courtyard and I'm looking at the alleyway. We are all kind of modelling nice little sections that we can all mix and match in different buildings so I think we will get alot of diversity this way.

We also brought together our storyboards at the beginning of the week and were really pleased with how it was working. Bar a few little camera angle niggles the actual narrative fitted together nicely and generally worked well for the minute we have to play with.

So on with the modelling for Week 5!

My blog is all working now guys www.samolyptik.blogspot.com

Basic 3frame cat run cycle

This is the first cat animation i made, its stepped with only 3 frames, and took about 20 mins, so after a couple o' weeks im feeling positive i can do sum nice stuff, and then its literally putting it into the environment.

Week 3: Production Schedule

I've whacked up this as a rough production schedule. It might be different to the one we put together as a group but I think we can use this until next week and then re-evaluate it then. Its got a section for each person and its very rough and sketchy at the moment. Also I've noted down the lectures we have on each of the days and a progress tracker for individual tasks on the right hand side. I'll post this on the main blog aswell as my own blog.

Also I have spent the afternoon updating my own blog if you wanna take a look!

Week 3 Meeting

Hey, so we met up after Barcelona on Wednesday and started getting our narrative sorted. Just thought I would re-cap that meeting here a little. Basically we decided on a rough map that we could use for our cat to go through and divided the rough layout into 5 sections.

Each person will b working to storyboard a separate section of the animation and we will bring these storyboards together at the start of Week 4 to check everything is matching up and making sense. Once we have got all this planning out of the way we will start assigning roles for the practical side so we all know what we are working on. Obviously Matt will be working on the cat and Sam will no doubt be working on the main terrain and environment space. it will then be down to me and Jeff to work on buildings and structures while I reckon Kanika will work with props and objects in the environment.

New Blog

Hey guys,
Being as we all need our own blogs I've made my own on here with the same design etc.

The URL is http://harveypostapocalyptik.blogspot.com/

If we all make a similar URL and just change ours names then it will all be generic. Then we just gotta link em up to one page!
