Saturday Update

-The blog is private for now, although I kinda want Ko and Rob to be able to check out the project and give their insights on it. I'll ask them about it.

-some style tests are looking good especially the rocks in asteroid, we'll try and compose more formal and composed frames for reference. This is a development stage, the more we get settled on earlier the easier it is for the animation part.

-problems we need to solve:
  • This is easy, a sphere shape, just with a matrix object and a cloner. We can use this method for just parts of the asteroids firing and explosion. But for anything else this is pretty hard and time consuming. I just shot Ko a about e-mail tho.
  • We will probably all need to learn Xpresso! specificly, Thinking Particle. read about them here. I think it will be a good chance to do it. I assume that it will be a big help in animation.
  • A animatic will be done on Tuesday night.
-Next meeting: Tuesday after 6:30 in room 143.
