Meet the new guys!

Things got rolling again this week and we’ve got two new characters to show off, meet WorkerBot and the Army Grunt. I’m especially pleased with my army guy as he took a whole day to create start to finish, I started drawing him in the morning and by the wee hours of the next day I was putting the finishing touches on his rig.

We also learned a lot this week children as we’ve been discussing Character sets and the Trax Editor with Jamie Perrin as well as looking into shooting part of the film in live action, watch this space for tests as we try to get our heads round it all. Monday was also a good day as we had our pitch for ROA 2008 and it seems like we’ll be a part of the festivities on one of the channels.

Until next week that’s all folks!

Week Two, Run Through…

My role as producer ran its way through this week again catching up with all the projects I’m involved in. George model has been moving forward after the slight delay of losing a days modelling work. Dissertation Researched sapped a lot of the week and I lost a couple more days to it than I would have liked.
I’ve started work on the texture for the character we’re calling WorkerBot firstly drawing the ideas on paper then drafting them up in illustrator. Me and Caspar also looked at some Sci-fi movie posters that we could parody somewhere down the line for ROA and the end of year exhibition space.

Something Term Two This Way Comes…

OK Term two underway, lots of catch-ups this week with my contributors as well as producer type things getting schedules together, shot lists and a huuuuge list of models, props and environments to model and texture. An especially interesting chat with the guys from sound left me really intrigued with how things are going to end up from that end it’s all sounding rather good, with sound.
I’ve also continued to model George in my spare time, adapting him to have proper clothing and getting ready to model his head. Not much exciting this week in the way of images so I’ll just leave the excel spreadsheets to your own imagination.

Merry...New Ye... Oh we're back?!

Well Merry Christmas to all who pay attention, writing this in January it's clear i got a little behind with my blogging. In the first weeks off i managed to complete Red's new texture with ecspecially good ID badge and creases in his shirt In my opinion.
I've also spent a large amount of time working on the other project that i agreeed to be part of I'm particularly happy with the body model for George from Becca Chandlers The Stamp Collector and i've also made good progress with the waiter for Cafe De Beignet. I'll let the pictures do the talking theyre both still in progress but i'm pretty happy with the way they both look at the mo.
One last thing is that over the break i managed to get the commissioning doument together for ROA 2008 and it seems to have been pretty well recieved, just a case to wait and see now wether or not we get the pleasure of pitching the film again. Let the year of Wunderland commence.
