Weekly Reflection

Here's what I was able to do this week:

Finding more sounds

Working on the title screen a bit more

Refining the animation a little bit more before rendering the final 

animation. Here's a playblast of the animation.

Yeah....That is pretty much what I was able to finish this week. I would say that I'm about only 80% complete, there are still some things that need refining and improving. 

More detailed rendershots! :D

Weekly Reflection

Well here's the tasks that I've completed:
Creating a title screen in Photoshop
Animating more movements
Finding more sounds
Crediting people who made the sounds and the person who created the Optimus Rig
in the title screen
More rendershots!! :D I have no idea what that black thing is.

Weekly goals

This week I hope to complete the tasks on this list:
Animating a little bit more in Maya
Creating a logo in photoshop
Getting the logo in Final Cut Pro
Adding a little bit more to the environment
Adding lights to the environment
Animating Optimus getting hit and making him look less lifeless

Objectives completed

So far I have worked on the environment and added more to it, such as a keyboard and mouse for the monitor, as well as a door and trashcan. I still need to work on the pop up ad and add something more to it, I just don't know what...I found more sounds that would fit the environment. 

I also animated Optimus more for when he gets hit, as well as more finger movement, the newspaper falling and the back of the chair falling to the ground.

Here's a playblast of what I have so far.

Weekly Goal

Objectives I hope to complete this week: 
Finding more sounds
Animating the ad a lot more, giving Optimus more movement
Work on the pop up ad model
Editing the video in Final Cut Pro

Playblast

Here is a little animation of Optimus looking through the paper.

Reflection

So far the only contributions are from me since I'm doing this alone, but then again I should thank Gary Wee for the Optimus rig, so I guess that's one contribution.

 Idk why, but I gave Optimus a mouth because the character was going to be someone entirely different, but I decided hey, why not the leader of the autobots himself?
