Storyboard

This is the storyboard for our short "Dream Girl." It was drawn and outlined by Tyler. Nice job Tyler. 

Concept Art- Dream Girl

This is the concept art that Noah and Eileen drew for our upcoming short. I colored some of the images in Photoshop so that we could have an idea of the general color schemes of each character. I did two color swatches for the guy character, and we all agreed that the one on the right was a better choice. For the girl, I gave her a fuchsia dress (for no apparent reason). Both of the characters are pretty cartoony and stylized. The guy is very rectangular and lanky, and the girl has a more round face. 

Weekly Update

This week is pretty short because of the Skills competition. We're just finishing up drawing and coloring the concept art for our animation. 

Weekly Update

This week we started our three month long animation project. My group had a bunch of trouble originally coming up with ideas. We eventually decided to go with an idea Tyler came up with. The basic premise is that a guy is waiting for this girl to show up on a date, and he begins to daydream about the girl and the date. By the time the girl shows up, the guy is totally zoned out, has is elbow in a plate of food, and looks like a crazy guy. The girl gets weirded out and leaves. I like this story and I think we can pull it off really well. 

The breakdown of our work will be something like this: 
Tyler will handle the character modeling, rigging, and animation.
Noah will primarily handle the scene modeling, and me and Eileen and Sean will help him out. 
I'm going to be doing the UV mapping and creation of UV textures, as well as camera animation. 
Eileen is in charge of all other surfacing and lighting. 
Sean is kind of going to help us all out with whatever we need. We might put him in charge of finding sounds to go along with our short.
