Waking Progress

Had a chat today with my supervisor about the progress of my projects. I am getting on fine with Waiting and development continues with me hoping to start animating soon. But the other project has not gotten much further forward. I am waiting to hear back on getting access to the motion capture studio which the project hinges on to progress. As such I am reluctant to put time into the development of a project that might not come to fruition. If there has been no word within a couple of weeks I will have to put the project on hold. Below are the thumbnail sketches I have done to show the type of movement that I was wanting.

Semester Three Plan

The plan for this semester is to work on the two projects I mentioned in my semester two presentation. They are:

Waiting:
A character performance of someone waiting at a bus stop.
It is to be a full 3D animation with 1 character and 1 location
To be between 60 and 90 seconds in length.

Waking: 
A choreographed performance of someone waking up in the morning.
It is to be a motion captured 3D animation
1 character and 1 location
Between 60 and 90 seconds in length.


I have done some initial research for both projects which can be viewed in the previous blog post and semester two presentation file.
