Have You Forgotten What You Have and What is Yours?

Hello again everyone!

So it has been a month since school paused for Christmas - and it was glorious! 4 weeks of no animating, no painting dozens of squirrels, no touching a computer at all!

But, alas, it had to end….and so we are here together once more.

You’ll notice that this is being posted on Monday night and not Wednesday. The class period is now on Tuesday mornings now so in keeping with the tradition of posting the night before….here.

First a recap. 

This was/is the plan for all 3 vignettes:


This is what was created last semester…..part 1. Unfortunately you are only able to look at it if you have the password since I might want to submit it places later:


Now some new stuff:

Notes from last term……
  • title should look more handmade
  • back wall in Main World is odd (pictures are cut off)
  • touching the piece should me more magical
  • flash needs work
  • need more time in setting up of Fantasy World
  • They all love the shadows!

So what has been happening in the past week, because really this is the second class now.

Well a lot of what needs to happen first is getting more detailed designs of the locations for each scene and angles of Pepper. Therefore all you can see today is a few sketches of what Pepper’s face and body will be like during the final World (back to Main) since the sketches next have to be created in Illustrator before being re-attached in After Effects and finally colored and animated. Thankfully that scene isn’t starting from scratch since several of the assets created for Main World pt1 can be re-utilized here.

Laying on the floor looking over....not 100% on which angle

For when she is looking down on the piece

And that is where we’re at people. Just a reminder: all of the titles for the posts are either song titles or parts of lyrics. Try and name them all this time. I won’t remind you again until the end.


Till next week!
