The Final Animation Due Week 13

Hi guys The final animation is due next week (WEEK 13 ),and no animation will be accepted after that. week 14 is for compositing only.Make sure your scenes are approved for animation by Barney and shown to Rafa for acting before the due date. You wont have time to fix them later on.You have everyone's e-mail, but if you want me to post it or send you the list please let me know.

IMPORTANT!!!

Please keep in mind that we all need to FINISH ANIMATING TWO SCENES by NEXT WEEK APRIL 7, 2011, and the REST if your scenes NEED TO BE POSED OUT IN KEY FRAMES.

For the people who have ONE SCENES, I have given you more scenes now, so EVERYONE HAS AT LEAST TWO SCENES. Also, you can't alter the spreadsheet, and if you try to alter it, I have a master copy with me. Just sayin.

(all the built characters are in the drop box that Bianca sent you .make sure you copy and paste them..don't take them directly from the drop box as it removes it completely !..you can also get them from Barney's outbox)

Drop Box Issues

It has come to my attention that people just take things out of Drop Box. PLEASE DO NOT DO THIS. Copy and past please. We always need back ups, and that's what Drop Box is. Don't just take it, make sure that you have copied and pasted it.

Again, COPY AND PASTE. Thanks <3

FLASH FILES are READY

MORE NEWS!

Hey Everyone. If you want your life easier, you can grab the flash files which already have the leica and the audio in them ready at DROP BOX. Also, I will drop them off at Barney's OutBox Folder in the Mac Labs tomorrow, Saturday.

There are also Audio Files and FLV for the leica bits for you to take if you want/need them. Thanks to Alice and Parisa for all the hard work!

So take your scenes and start working!

Also, as Barney has told me, if you want your scene set up done by the Scene Set Up people, please let us know ASAP. By that I meant NOW! Otherwise, if you want to do it yourself, you are free to do so as well.

Maggot Designs

Scott here,
Character designs for the Maggots.

First we have your every day candy making working maggot.
Second is your very loveable gender confused maggot... just as hard working.

  

Style Reference

Here's Lyna's photo ref for the show. Use this first one a lot. REMEMBER WE ARE IN A SWAMP. The characters should be standing knee deep in mud.

Layout Designs

Hey storyboard artists here are some more layout drawings. Use this as inspiration for your storyboard designs.

Kitchen

DockForest.

Factory.

Rough Layout

 This is a colored rough i did a couple days ago. It is here even tho Rafa didn't like it! I don't entirely understand why I'm putting this here but....here you go

I still have a lot to work with these so if anyone has suggestions, i would more then gladly take them

Character Designs

Granpa and Kid Designs.

Grandpa expressions. This is how his mouth works.

Character Designs

If we don't put an out line on the characters then it will be easier for the builders to make them animation friendly and the animators won't have to worry about lines in the elbows and knees crossing over each other. Just an idea.
