Weekly Goals

The group goal this week is to finish the animation. We need to place all the scenes together, add sound, and do some small touch-ups. We should be able to finish by the deadline. One of the 3 scene parts is complete and rendered, so only two to go.

Weekly reflection

This week i'm continuing my work on the infomercial animation, I will be coming in after school to finish it before work and start the render process.

Weekly Reflection

This week I finished the scene at the mall for the infomercial were the man is not happy with the headset. After school today I will render the animation, along with everyone else on the team and their animation. This week everyone did their part and were almost done.

Weekly reflection

Weekly Goals

My goal this week is to complete the mall background by adding items in the shop.

Weekly Reflection

So this week i've begun animating our sales-man.  I'm trying my best to make him feel like a real person to the viewer. We chose the ACME Rig, mainly because of how stressed he already looks.  Mckenna has been working on the walk cycles, and Skylar  has been working on a extra environment for the animation

Reflection

I have been working on the walk cycle for the goon this week. It is working out pretty good so far, thanks to Mr. Elmore. I will probably finish it next week and move on to something else.

Weekly Reflection

This week I worked on one of the backgrounds for the infomercial and I'm almost done. All it needs is a few more fillers. Also this week our team all worked very hard and we are getting the animation done. The next objective for me will be to finish the background.

Weekly Goals

All the small parts for the animation have been collected, so this weeks' goal is to give life to the spokesperson of the infomercial and maybe start adding the background people to the set. We will need a recording of someone talking for the spokesperson but that can be focused on later.

Walk Cycle

Right now i am working on the walk cycle of one of our characters. So far it is going okay, I am watching a walk cycle on youtube to show me how everything moves so I can put in the character. I will continue to work on it next time.

Finished objectives of the week

I've  colored and rendered the set for the infomercial, Have any opinions on how the set could better? Put em' in the comments!

This week I was able to find sounds for the animation, complete the information page for the headphones, and create a credits screen that will most likely need to be updated. We may need more sounds too but for now I think we're good. The information page came out good and simple and I'm happy with it. This week everyone in the team completed what they planned to do. Everything is looking awesome and by the end we will have an awesome animation. The goals for next week is to start animating.

Weekly Goals

This week my personal goal is to find sounds for the infomercial. This will include clapping, short music bits, and just funny sound effects.

As a group we would like to get the set done, and all the rigs for the background people collected.

Weekly Reflection

This week I finished my laptop design in maya and completed the story board. This week we also managed to choose our invention and are now just collecting rigs for the background characters and the announcer. Every member of the group has completed their task, and everything is starting to take shape. When we come back from Spring Break we will start animating our infomercial.

Impractical Eraser

This week we came up with concept sketches on our ideas and we are now in maya starting to get the look of what we want them to look like. Our goal is to finish them in maya.

Reflection- Week 1

^- This week I started working on the concepts for my "Tranquil" headphones. See, what they do is when you plug in your iPod, these headphones will lower the Bass and Treble so much that the music seems tranquil! and while they're doing this they raise the volume of those around you!

This is the concept I was asked to do in our group. I have the concept sketches which I will be scanning on to the blog Later. These headphones are based off of a pair of Triton (TR) over the ear headphones.
The colors I will choose are White for the neck pad, black for the bass pad and size adjusters, and a dark blue for the ear muffs.

Impractical Eraser sketches

These are the concept sketches I came up with for the eraser.

These are the concept sketches for the impractical laptop.

This week we planned to get all the concept sketches done, and try to get the maya designs started. Everyone completed the concept sketches and has started in Maya. The next objective is to just finish the designs.
