Final Environment Scenes Done.

These are some shots of the environment taken from trish and kirsty where i included the Vending Mac, Joey and Ash. I think that the enevironment is alright. i felt that it could of been better, but because of the time we have wasted on other things (disseratation), we had to move on to the next stage. we also had to delete some stuff in the scene because of data. It was too much to run moving around in the scene. 

Sharing the Camera Shots for Animating

This is a image of the aniamtic shots on shotgun where they could view and see the shots that have been assigned to then to do.

we used shotgun to communicate through which was helpful to use online.

These are the shots that the group had decided to share out amount each other.

These are the camera shots taken from the animatic which we did the first term. we decided as a group to  stick with the shots for now, but there might be changes through the process.

Vending Mac Done.

Joey Rigging Completed!

Back-up Plan.

For the past 2 weeks i havent seen the progression of the environment. i was told that they are getting on with it due to some family issues. so i created the environment of the office and hallway that i wanted to see from trish and kirsty which i drew to for then several times.

Vending Mac Modelling

Shuhel was suppose to model the Vending Mac, but he said that he had to much to do with the roles that were assigned for him to do. So i had know other option then to do it myself. So i went back to my designs and modelled the vending mac.

Problems with Controls (Rigging)

The rigging was going well when i came across with some problems of the eye controls. this was very holding we up and need to find someone who can help me with the eye controls, weighing and facial controls. I found Tara who helped me out with the eye controls, weighing and facial controls.

Rigging So far So good!

The rigging is going well so far, i first created the joints, and then the IK handles. I started making the controls for the waist, back and foot to give him some movement. I did keep looking back at the animatic to see what kind of movement ability needed to be done, so that we will be able to animate joey.

First the joints and Ik handles

Then next the controls for the waist/back/foot...etc

Next i did the head control

Screen Shot of the Rig so far done by myself.

Begin Rigging Joey

I needed to start on the rigging straight away because my group was depending on me to complete the full creation of joey who is the main guy in the project. So there was alot of weight on my shoulders to do already. I started making the joints and placing then in the right place. This was pretty easy for me to do putting in the joints.
