Update of rendered frames...

Here is the first half of the renders put together with the correct music track We are waiting for the rest of the renders to put them into Premiere, along with the credits. Again, I think we're unhappy because of the lack of time for post production. If we weren't waiting for renders we wanted to 'pretty' it up - with grass, hilly backgrounds and adjustments to lighting in after effects.

Opening credits...

We can't actually decide on a name for our piece, as it is not a story. However, we decided to 'fancy' up our names just so it didn't start off as a boring black and white piece of text... So, here it is. - Here I used  photoshop. I think the plan is to simply fade in and out to black with this because we need the film to start on black (horse's pupil).

Just to show the snippets of renders together... more to come

Render Shots

Hand in...

Really not happy with the work we handed in. Because of rendering problems with my laptop and the studio computers, each frame was taking 50 minutes to render!!! Not happy. So, yes, the worst came to worst and we decided we just had to hand in a playblast of our camera movement. Again, we had problems! surprise surprise. So here's the very crude playblast. You will notice that the length has changed dramatically. After speaking to Denise, she said that the camera movement needs to be much slower for both showing the modelling skills and in order for the audience to not feel sick!

lighting with the sky

So, forgetting the pointy moon... I wanted to check a render of the teacups, with the spot lights I have added. I think the contrast works well, obviously there is a grey shadow/reflection on the teapot and cups, but I think that this can be remedied by applying grass to the ground.

Just an alternative shot, with the extra lighting on the carousel. the glow on the lights works well. It wasn't planned but I think it gives a mysterious, misty feel.

I have adjusted the spot light which is angled onto the dome, here it doesn't look bad!

textures on the extras...
