Wunderland Scene, The Bad News, Mrs Allan ready to animate.

Lately i have been working on some animation for Adam, i have been given a scene where the red monkey is in his office and is basically meant to look bored. I was quiet excited to animate the scene simply as i have not done much animation as off yet, and since i have my computer back i will hopefully be able to finish it within a week or so.

On the downside, however more of a get ur ass together, we spoke to Dan today as he was checking to see what stage we are at the moment, and clearly he could see our film was strugling as we still have not had a complete environment just yet. We also come to conclusion as time is very much not on our side with a 3 man team we will have to jump straight into animation and go pass the 3d blockout stage. This has rally scared us, so we as a group spent a couple of hours reschedualing or schedule to see how long we got and what we need to do untill hand in. From the schedule we did its apparant i had to do a shot a day, but as the cafe shot was not completley modelled yet i had to wait till it was done to do some scenes. However the old lady (Mrs Allan) was finished rig, and i recieved it today thanks to Ross, I will over the weekend spend some time testing the rig by doing a walk cycle. This walk cycle can then be incorporated into some of the scenes. I must admit after our long and scary talk with Dan, it really i think is starting to motivate us to prove everyone wrong that we can finish this film.
