All handed in

So it's all handed in now. Hurray!

Another Poster

Here's another poster. While I was trying to sleep, this popped into my head and I had to draw it!!

Poster and cards

Here are some examples of a Poster for Sarafinas Bubble and my business card.

Brons concept work and Claires poster

Here are a few bits I've done for Bron and Claire.
For Claire I worked on making a poster. I did have trouble at first getting the hang of it (I've never made a poster before) but I managed in the end. One version has larger font and is in red.









For Bron, I did a bit of concept art for her. Mainly messing around with what I could do with a guinea pig! I also did 6 hours of inbetweening for Brons animation.

Editing of film

Nat will be the head editor of the film as she feels she has a flair for it, which I agree! I'm not a very techy person at all so am happy for her to take on anything like this. She will be doing most of the compossiting on Shake then the final cut will be edited on...Final Cut!!
As the film has evolved, certain shots don't mean as much as they used to. We have decided to cut out two scenes. The first is one animated by Bron, which we all loved, was the low angle running shot. It just it didn't read well in the story anymore and stood out too much. The second was reluctenly cut by me. I was a huge fan of the extreme wide shot of Sarafina and the emos first encounter, but like the run, didn't make any sence to keep in anymore.

These two shots can be seen on Nats blog. The link is to the right.

Problems

Due to extreme business and blogspot not working for a while, there haven't been any updates on here for a while...I've found it extremely hard to keep up with a blog, having never had one before I find it hard to either find the time or remember to update it.

So far the project is going smoothly. Not as many hicups as I thought. We're now on the last 3 weeks so it's now 100% editing time.

Group work...Hmmmm, now this is a toughy. It's been next to impossible to find work for this...So far I've done a bit of concept for David, Ash and Nik, about 5 seconds of animation for Broni and in the process of making a poster for Claire. I've not had the chance to put anything up on my blog yet, need to scan everything in and stick it up when I have the chance!! Again, it's all about finding the time and then making the effect to update this...

Anyway, I WILL be sticking everything up this week, honest. I've got my dissertation hand in in a week so my head is spinning exorist style at the moment...

Dave defering a year

Unfortunatly Dave, who's project I was woking on, has dropped back a year due to personal reasons. This is an unfortunate for me as I was going to be using all my hours on his project. So far I have done roughly 25 hours for him. In this time I have been working on concept work, help with his stories (discussions, spider diagrams of events, characters etc) and help on his storyboard.
It is a shame that this has happened as I was really looking forward to animating on his project.
I will now be trying to up my hours on others projects.
