Basic colouring etc at the moment just to indicate the colouring for textures etc.

Modelling talk

Just a quick post to say my plans for this week.

Now that I am back to modelling, I hope to get lots done quickly as it feels like I haven't done as much work on this project as I would have liked. Josh has asked me to take over modelling the rest of the buildings for the street shot, so I plan to move onto those next week, and get through lots of small models for the kitchen.

Ideas dropped and changed

I'm realy annoyed today. Once again the idea has been changed, Phil went and saw Sean at the end of last week, and I have only just found out today that ideas have been dropped or changed. It is realy infurating me now, I just want a sebttled idea now and to realy get into the process of the story.

I'm just annoyed that we keep having ideas and then work hard on them for three weeks and they just get changed again. Everytime I keep feeling like were loosing all of our ideas and to me I think some of the comedy has been lost.

I understand the cuts of the first scene etc it just annoys me how many ideas we have gone through and none of them are good enough each time, so it feels like an endless circle.

Also having it changed again it has realy annoyed me as I realy tried hard last week on my animatic and put so much time into it. Now the idea has changed again I feel like I lost a whole week of work and waisted time I could have spent on more constructive work. I knew I wasn't good at drawing but hoped I'd get some considertation for that work but it feels like similarly to other ideas they've just been tossed in the bin.

I was very sorry to see the ideas of the child in the costumes get wiped out of the story. If I am honest I don't find the new story that funny anymore, to me too much of the comedy has been erased.

Hopefully when I get more into it, I may get the passion back for the idea, but at the moment it feels like i'm not realy working on a project I enjoy.

Hopefully getting back to modeling today will help me to get back into the flow and enjoyment towards the project.

My animatic- scene 2 part 1

This is my share of the 2nd sceneof the animatic. I managed to complete mine in time for the showing with Sean and Peter but unfortuntely Phil had soe problems, and we weren't able to put it all togeher in time to show. Hopefully we an ge it together for Monday and show Sean.

My animatic- scene 1 part

This is the first task of my on the animatic. I have spent 2 days on this, struggling to draw, but I hope it's clear enough to understand. This is my half of the first scene to draw up.

Animatic plans

Today me and phil have been discussing changes, and planning the animatic. We have gone through new ideas and put together all the shots in rough and have divided up the shots for each of the three scenes for us to try and get the animatic done for Thursday to show everyone.

I am extremely rusty at drawing, however I will try my best.

Newidea again and hopefully the last.

Today we yet again saw Sean to try get a story sorted and heading in the right direction. He leaned us more towards slapstick comedy, taking us away from so many static shots, talking and the formal approach of cutting to each character in each room etc.

Later in the day we managed to compile a story with using our last stories beginning but added a slapstick section after it. Josh came up with the idea this time which was nice to get fresh ideas from him as he doesn't like to get involved in the story usualy.

Anyway with a bit of discussion and some entertaining role play we got a pretty short and punchy idea together.
We scrapped one child and left ourselves with 2 children but have now somehow gained an interviewer and  ambulence crew.
I will post up the idea in a moment in image form.

Creating a teddy bear for the little girl monster

My production over the day of the teddy bear

I modelled it from a cube, extruding out the head, arm, and leg, and then I duplicated and copied over the good side and attached them together. The teddy bear still needs work, so hopefully I will get it looking nice soon.
