In the Student Films screening, there was one animation called 'The Kite' which could be helpful if we encounter any problems down the line. Two elements of my group project that my team seemed to be struggling with were how the clouds should look and how we were going to make stop motion puppets fly. In 'The Kite', cotton wool was used for the clouds and was very effective, and it also featured puppet birds flying. I made notes throughout and will fall back on these if my teammates ask for help.
While at MAF, I messaged my group asking for updates to make sure they were still on track being one member down.
Then in class we had our first session of weekly's.
Once they were over, I got to work on a more difficult shot. As I wasn't sure how to approach this, and our set still hasn't been built, I thought it would be best to do a few tests.
This isn't finished, and I am still not happy with it so next week I will continued to key frame, and refine this shot.
After the weekly, I made a list of shots based on the storyboard and labelled it with who was in charge of animating each scene. The director initially suggested I animate all the shots with the characters while Joseph, the other 2D animator, focused on the shots of the moon and any scenes with lightning/fog. However, after breaking these shots down, it was very unbalanced so next week I will probably update this sheet as I am concerned about this, as is the director.
