Dear Diary.
Yes I know. If you are directing a film there is quite a lot of work to do, you don't have time for all the animation. Well I thought, it can't be too bad. Texture a bit, find a nice style, composit the scenes, cut the film, thats alright in 12 weeks, I can do that next to animating. Ha! That all takes so much time, there is almost no time left to animate.
There is just one more week until the final deadline (yes, Friday the 20th)and I just almost finished the first scene... But at least I can start render everything thats finished animating as the modelling is finally done.
Here is the first scene which I hope I can start render tomorrow.
Yes, his hand is going through the table and no, he doesn't have facial expressions. I need something to do for tonight :-)

Style-test the 2nd
Dear diary...
It's been a while, yes, I missed you too! There are just sooo many things going on, the kitchen and the porch are build, the study is almost done as well. Now it's time to texture and play with effects. And wow, that is really not easy! Yes it looks good, but does it look good animated as well? Does it look like I wanted it too look? And if so, will everybody else like it as well?
The modelling part is going really well but the animation is going a bit slow at the moment. Gabby and Joe are doing good, but my animation part isn't good. There are just so many other things to do on that film, animation is pushed further and further...
Well, but now Lisa and I've played enough with the colours and the effects, I am really pleased with these two test-renders which means I can completely focus on the animation now!
Please click on the pictures to see them in full size :-)

Gratulations, it's a porch!
Dear Diary...
Everything will start one day, it will grow, learn, experience. This is called development, and a porch can do the same!

PreViz, a room of boxes
Dear Diary...
The PreViz takes longer than I expectet. So I'll show you the Pre-visualisation of the rooms now, and as soon as I finally finish the PreViz of the film I'll upload that as well.
For the Pre-visualisation I've build all my rooms in boxes, not really detailed or with textures. But now I can give these rooms to my artists and they can start building the rooms properly while my animators can starts animating. I am busy to animate the man and the woman, set up all cameras and the lighting. Well, and everything inbetween :-)

Its a rainy SUNday
Dear Diary...
its sunday, a very nice sunday. What day would be better to meet a good friend, have a Crêpes in the sun at Riverside-Market and then go to uni and do some colour/texture test? Thanks to Lisa I finally have some texture-test I can show you! This is how the film might look:
Yes it is 3D and yes it looks like a painting! How cool is that??
It's just a test though, imagine how it looks in a moving environment with proper light... uuuhh!!

Moving Rrroar!
Dear Diary...
He is alive!
But he is not the only one. The old woman, the fairy AND the dragon are alive. I've put a video together to show you the turnarounds of Ben and Lisa's models, and mine of course! Oh, and the dragon's deform-test as well.
There is an elf that is almost finished as well. Gabby want's to give him a final skin treatment before he is ready for the world!
Next point on my ToDo-List is to finish the Video-PreViz and try to figure out the texture.
So, hope to see you next week :-)
