Ads

Here is the ad for the side of the delivery truck.....






















and here is the newspaper that arrives at a convenient moment to help Murray find a solution to his troubles.




















The headlines should be fairly familiar references for those in our class.

Well, That didn't work

Failed attempt at replacing Murray's body with the updated rigged version.
At least we know what would happen if the mower caught him



Update: Had to use merge to import without any "issues". I think we lost all the work Matt did with physique but I think there is a way to save and load in the vertex weighting level.. Hopefully. The other option is merging *everything* from the scene into Murray's final rigging max file. We'll see.

3D Animatic Render Guide

Here is a copy of the 3D animatic render guide. This should help us stay sane when we try to render and will help us figure out where the cuts are at in the timeline.

3D Animatic

Over the weekend we created our 3D animatic. Some of the cuts and timing need a bit of work but this is the first draft of what the final film will be. There are few elements like the delivery box, houses, tree foliage, grass and MowMaster colors that are not finished yet and will have to be completed later if we have the time.

Scene Layouts & Camera Placements

Here are the scene layouts with camera placements. We've strayed a bit from our first storyboard which is a good thing although these are not storyboards but just for scene layout. All the objects are just simple placeholders for the models we are currently building and will be replaced. We'll have those done by Monday so check back for model turntables.
