Still on the same scene :(

Hmmmm

Yeah i seem to have failed meeting my timetable as i have been behind schedule, i was scheduled to have finished all the animation today which is the 30th May, but this long scene has been holding me back, however i think i am getting there, after this long scene i just have a small reaction shot to do.

More to the BIg scene

I have still been working on this scene, there is alot that needs to happen, firstly she realise the doughnut box has been moved towards the oldman, she gets angry, she steps on the table , walk towards the old man, slaps his hand as he picks up the doughnut, she pick the box up to turn and walk back however the old man grabs the box just as she turns causing the tug of war to happen, she pulls the box quickly and suddenly she slips doughnut in the air, old man catches and just about to eat and realise how the old woman looks upset, he then breaks the doughnut and gives it to her, she snatches and eat it up quickley. SOUNDS SIMPLE, BUT ITS NOT LOL, its taking forever to get the moment looking right as the old woman is quiet large in some places its hard to make her do some of the moments without it going through objects. this is how far i have gotten so far.

The Long Big Scene

As Desmond has been rendering the scenes that we have done already, i will have to animate the old man and Mrs Allan in this scene, it would have been hard if we both did the scene together so it was best if i did it myself,also desmond had alot to do so it was only fair i took this scene from him as my main specailist is character animation. At the moment i will start to animate the woman first.

My box of doughnuts

This was a half a day job i just needed to animate the old mans hand pulling the box of doughnuts towards him. This is a still camera shot of just the box and a hand comes into place to pull it towards him.

Finished eating her first doughnut

Finshed

now to animate the next scene

Reaction Shot

For this scene i need to make Mrs Allan react to the old man, as he has just open the box and is eating his first doughnut, She will need to be surprised and then snatch the box and bring it towards her and start eating.

One more final attempt

This morning i had one more final attempt and then decided to move onto other scenes as hand in date is near the end.

Scene 7

This a struggle this scene as i have to make Mrs Allan struggle to climb up onto her seat, i mean at the moment i have been stuck on this scene for a couple of days now making me behind schedule so therefore this is the best i can do at the moment, i will have to move on and if i have time improve it but at the monet it seems quiet unlikely as i still have the other half of the film to animate, as Desmond is animating the old man it will help speed things up slightly, although it seems like i may have to animate the old man at some point aswell because i cant keep desmond waiting for me if i have not finished my scene, so therefore i give him the list of reaction shots which he can do with out waiting for me.

scene 6

Putting the box on table did not take long, so this took me at least half a day meaning that i can work on another scene this evening. However i showed Dan scene 4 and he believe that i should change it simply because it gives the impression that the Mrs Allan is gone to meet the old man. I may change it depending on how much time i will have left however for certain it will change for the degree show.
