BUILDING · 10 SEPTEMBER 2010 After a long break, I started working on this again. One thing holding me up was designing the hallway set. I've gone back in forth in my mind as to how it should look, contemporary or sci-fi. I actually started making a contemporary set a few months ago but decided it wasn't quite working. As a result, I've gone back to my original vision and started to build the set with the proxy hallway as a framework. It's a little cliche, but I just wanted to move forward after being stuck for so long. While I could continue to animate shots and may still do that, I felt like I really needed to make some progress with the overall look of this film. Still a long way to go, but it's good to at least get this going. After I had enough built, I did a few test renders to see how it looked from a wide shot and with a character in the set. SUMMERTIME · 1 SEPTEMBER 2010
I didn't work on this short at all during June, July, and August. The main reason for June and July was that I had a very big character to animate at work. Seven minutes of dialog, facial, and acting, pretty much all the stuff I love to do as an animator. Mostly it was done the last week of May until about the beginning of August. However, it was such a large chunk of work to do in a short amount of time, I couldn't spread myself too thin by trying to work on this project at the same time. I wasn't required to do overtime, but did end up spending many extra hours working on the animation. August ended up being a bit of a hangover and I think being a little unsure of the design for the hallway sequence's environment kept my inpiration fairly low unfortunately. ![]() |
