8 Days to Go

8 Days to go:

Today, I brought in my backed-up DVDs of old footage (especially, the first few animatics) and coded the buttons for the DVD. It's quite a packed little DVD, with an outrageous amount of special features. It's taking a while right now to transcode it (optmization prior to burning) but I'm confident I can get most of the DVDs burned today.

As well as all 7 animatics, the DVD also includes: 12 pencil tests, 3 scene deconstructions (showing step by step how they changed), deleted scenes and a short film about trolleys.


This is all part of the Production Folder which will be finished next week, and my showreel will also be burned today if possible.

9 Days to Go

9 Days to Go...

See above, the last shot to be animated for Bread - Toast rack guy 2!
He took a little while, as I was going to boast how many keyframes required to animate him - but then it turned out he had waaaaay too many, so I cut them down and now he looks much better! Much more subtle.

I went through the credits, including the shiny University logo template, and added it to the end of the film with some extra editing.
Last night, I wrote and recorded the 'End Theme' to Bread - plus some addition music for the DVD. This was also added to the film.

I spent another 30 mins editing sound for the sandwich being picked up: as the editor, Derek said it was required. Thing was though, my minidisc was on charge, so it excreted this horrible buzzing noise over my SFX, so i spent a long time trying to get rid of it. I shortened it and shortened it, before nearly giving up. Then, I did the exact opposite - and illongated the track, so I could fade in/fade out while the voices are playing, so it's actually there for longer, but less noticeable!

Only in Animation! :o)

Still, all of this work, plus some more de-interlacing means that...
THE FILM IS FINISHED!!!!!
100% DONE!

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

So, to celebrate, I worked on the DVD layouts and clips, editing some stuff together and will hopefully complete that AND my new showreel by tomorrow, so that on Friday I can buy Final fantasy III DS and play that all day...!

YEAH TOAST!
