Hey! well its been ages since i last updated my blog, which really isnt a good thing, but i have been doing lots of work and scheduling! Christmas went very quickly and i was ill for most of it, how fun, but a week before we came back i started to do some planning.... A NEW SCHEDULE! last term was really tiring and the schedule kinda got lost in the madness, but all the work i had planned for the group was completed and the pitch that i spoke about before went great. Due to being Director and Producer i found that i had hardly any time to think about my own work, so i decided to throw out the old and rather vague schedule and produce a new and incredibly detailed one, so that the team know their designated tasks and their relavent deadlines, as well as review dates along the way. I had a chat to rob and decided to make him Producer, this should hopefully make this term alittle easier to handle.
Also got a grade for my personal contributions to the film and got an -A. Really pleased with the grade and want to keep up and push the quality this term.
So the work ive been doing includes the blockout of the film in maya with rob, team meetings, the new schedule that rob and i completed and modelling the main explorer character. The modelling took a few days longer as the model sheets were'nt entirely accurate.
Some of the modelling work that i completed:
Blockout Work - First Jungle Shot (Possibly following a snake weave through the dense undergrowth) Blockout Work - Second Jungle Shot (Slow camera track into jungle vegetation)Blockout Work - Third Jungle Shot (Camera stops as the main explorer charactermoves between the shadows of the trees and bushes)
