Tra la la!

We were good kids today! We went thru a lot of shots sins we finally got work from a floater and were able to put it in to some shots. So today it was basically about putting cameras in, animate it, animate Valkyrie in shots and corrugate lightning. A lot of shots will be put on render tomorrow! I can see the light in the tunnel!!! I have done some work at home as well. Here is one little bit of it:
Now I am getting a lot of hairy kisses from my cat wail I am drinking a bottle of bear that I deserved so well today :D

Cleaning up... working... Zzzleepin...

Have been much lately... Clean up animations, morph targets, textures that are bugging, lightning, a bit slow floater, film intro and outro, allergy, par time work, home... I am exhausted!

So little time, so much to do and the only thing that I want to do is to sleep. Every day I just have to lay down and sleep with 30 min intentions that becoming 3 hours result. I am getting things done, maybe not in that speed that I wish to, but it is a progress there.

I finished animation in some shots and passed them forward for rendering at the same time that I was rigging Valkyrias face with PolySelect and LinkedXform modifier. Here is next shot where I am cleaning up animation, will reduce hue saturation on garbage texture and set up lightning.

Inspiriting pieces and nightmares of the Valkyrie speech...

I met my friend yesterday and recorded speech for our character. I tried to understand what is happening with the sound from it comes thru the mic to it comes to a CD, but I had to give up. After some experimental recording we found out workflow that was working. We recorded whole speech at two tracks. She had to read sentences over and over and over and over again until I heard a couple of versions that was great, and over to the next sentence... I think she was having nightmares about that speech after that... I did... Anyway, somebody in my group have to research a free software to convert tracks to readable format, then we have to cut up pieces and make some effect on the voice. I do not know what effect, bit we are going to figure it out.

I was searching some inspiration. I started to think about our film title “DECAY” and then I thought about Russian song artist “Linda”. She makes a little bit untraditional music, especially if you understand the song text, but in this case I am not talking about any texts. It is one of her music videos that I want to share. I think it has some similarity with our film. These video is realy "decay". Here it is, “North wind” by Linda.


Another video that I like very much is from Russian group “SEREBRO” song- “Breath”. I do like this black and white layout that is actually not black and white. The video is a bit surrealistic fantasy stile. Love it!
