Our Submission

Today we finally have lots of work behind us and are very much focused on this one project. So based on the meeting we had we're looking forward to Submitting:

  • Work Reel (a basic portion)
  • 10 second Teaser of our Short, 
  • A3 Storyboard (print out)
  • The script
  • This lovely Blog (that we'll probably keep updating till the end of August)
  • Pending documents
Including a soft copy of all the above! (of course)

Progress IV

We're closely approaching our "technical" deadline, however due to all the stress and pressure all the groups have been going through with lots of work, we will be submitting what we've got till the end of July, and the option to further work on this till the end of August. Yay and Nay. The ideal for us would be to be done by now, but things don't always work that way so Yay.

At this point we're really focusing only on the actual animation work and how to bring this whole project together visually with good story.

Time Tweaks

Based on our most recent pipeline with our time management in detail, we've tweaked it just a little more realistically, cutting through our buffer time to best show what needs to be done. Everything grayed out, as the previous, show's what's been done and anything in orange/red is essentially in emergency mode (not impossible, but not to be ignored).

Progress III

At the current moment, half of our team is missing, busy with the CN internships for most of the time, and so we've devised a plan to split up the workload in a way that each half will work more hours during the week they do not have internships in.

We've also just recently had our audio master class where we've used Garage band and recording equipment to do most of our Audio (sounds good so far), we've noticed slight hissing so a little more cleanup. However, all that left is a good sound library for those missing sound effects.

Also at this stage we are further using AfterEffects to ease into the process of Animation. Shots have been distributed initially, and everything in the Pre-Production phase has been wrapped up for good. Phew.
