DONE

I am finally done with this.
After almost a month (damn seemed longer) I am done with this.

I spent one day modeling, texturing, and rigging.
I spent one day per shot setting up the lighting and camera.
I then waited and waited for it to finish -_-
I spent one day one color correction and sounds.

So I actually didn’t spend a ton of time on it, most of it just waiting. But I am proud of it.

The First Day

Today we went shopping.

After looking through a few local hardware/etc stores I settled with Home Depot to get everything I need to start growing plants.

I spent a lot less than I expected. $41. That got me:

4ft 2 Light Fluorescent Strip Light
2 4ft 40W Fluorescent Bulbs
64 quart bin
32 quarts of soil
5 different seeds

I’ll have pictures tomorrow.

By far the most space/time/money effective way of doing this I think.… Read the rest

Hey Paul

So I’ve decided to grow some Sunflowers inside cause it’s too cold outside, it will be too cold for a long time, and I want something to do. Watching plants grow seems fun.

I’ve narrowed it down to two species of them. One less than two feet tall (really miniature) and one about 4 feet tall (semi miniature).

I’ll need some awesome lights to grow them indoor and I think I’ve found what I need. Whenever I get everything planned … Read the rest

Well

Nothing much has been going on lately. I’m almost done with this animation. I’ve got like a scene or two left and then I’ll go into post-processing work and stuff.

I’m thinking about growing something. Like plants. I haven’t decided exactly what but I have some ideas that I’m looking into. I think the idea of watching something grow seems cool. And I won’t have to play with it much. Just water it basically.

But everyone I’ve said this to … Read the rest

Yesterday

Was a lot of fun. We went to Little Five Points for a little while and then met up with some other (very crazy) people at the Avenue.

I brought my camera but I only got two pictures, one of which was an accident and turned out REALLY nice. It’s at the bottom of this post.

Update on what I’m working on:

The short animation is ALMOST done. I have to rig and ready the last scene. And then render. … Read the rest

Tonight was

Pretty awesome.

I went to an old good friend’s concert (their first show). I recored the whole thing and ATM that is being captured to my other computer, then I’ll make it all nice and export which will take too damn long for what it’s worth, and then I’ll upload which will, of course, take too damn long.

On the same note, rendering of scene six of this animation is taking far too damn long. By time I got home … Read the rest

Currently Working On:

 

This is what I’m doing as of now. It’s a short film (animation style) of this character (Danbo). I found an image of him and looked him up and apparently it’s a character from an Anime, correct me if I’m wrong anybody.

It’s about halfway done. So far I’ve got nine different scenes (maybe four seconds long each) rigged and ready and five of which are already rendered out. I’ve still got three or four more scenes in my head … Read the rest
