Production Still

IMPORTANT!

Hey guys!
How's it all going?
5 DAYS TO GO!
Hope the guys who are animating Roscoe got the rigged file and it works well. I haven't sent to all mainly because it would clog your accounts! Also, lemme know who needs Roscoe in 300 dpi. Way too big to email in all views. So lemme know which view you want him in, if needed.

The NEW ANIMATIC is up on the NetStorage. Please check it out!

IMPORTANT:
1. We go with a more photographic FEEL for the assets and backgrounds and a textured look for the characters. Just as in the production still.

2. ALL CHARACTERS need similar eyes to that of Roscoe, eg. his pupils. I have attached a png of it. Please change the colours to brown, blue, grey etc. in Photoshop.

3. SHADING. All characters would be shaded and you would be using 'colour burn' for the brush in Photoshop and painting over the actual colour, rather than shading on the layer above.

Also, Michael's going to experiment with roscoe's hanging eyes today... and he will be making some close-ups of roscoe breathing in pepper, so nobody else should spend their time doing this, as it could be recycled through the film.

Moon Sun has completed her scene and sent it for approval.

I'm updating the blog with a few jpegs of assets and backgrounds. Please take a look at those too!

PLEASE EMAIL ASSETS OF THE STUFF THAT ROSCOE SNEEZES OUT, TO ME!
png format ~ 150 dpi
We're starting to build the tower and we need those assets!

Except for the following scenes
1. Bono Scene
2. Big Sneeze
3. Pope
4. Swat team
We need to have all the scenes completed by SATURDAY (AT NOON) to start putting things together.

~ Lachlan. I have emailed you with regard to titles! Please lemme know.

~ Amy and Sarah. Press-kit needs to be worked on as well!

More later!

A peek at one of the scenes!

Here he is!

We have Roscoe, all rigged up and ready to animate! I shall be sending it over a few emails because of the file sizes!

Also, we've decided to go ahead with the Bono scene now.

Juan and Hung have started working on Backgrounds today in full swing. Juan has completed Bgs for two scenes! My aim is to finish backgrounds by Friday afternoon. Fingers crossed =)

Gavin ~ Michael and Sarah have sent some of their thoughts. You would have to make a few changes to your Santa scene! Will call you tomorrow =)

Jo has done the character designs for her scenes and will be emailing them for approval tom! They look nice!

Please take a look at the Spreadsheet for changes!

More tomorrow,
Goodnight!!
