The Beginning of the End

Hey everyone,

So this week at tafe was the 'beginning of the end' ~

What I mean by that is, i've started to finish the final assignments of this term =P
~ yay ~

there is still lots to do, but i'm a lot closer than before.

But before that ~ We are having an EXPO soon ~ and i made the Facebook page for it, so go take a look, and perhaps have a look through the student gallery ~

Going back to assignments ~

This week i finished one of anthony's assignments ~
the rigging and skinning assignment ~ it's my first time rigging and skinning in maya so i was pretty happy with the results ~

This photo is to show the way the arms bend without horrible disfiguration

This is to show you all the controls on the rig (the foot can be IK and FK) 

The way the back bends

How the leg bends and moves without disfiguration

and what the entire rig set up looks like 

The other thing i did lots of work on this week is the Green screening we did at ABC with the film students. 

I've done an Style Guide - 

and a very very rough animatic in Nuke X -

I also started building the teleportation machine in 3D, but i didn't take any screen shots of it. 

Lastly, I got some audio examples from the sound students that are doing the audio for my short story ~ i'm so excited, it's finally coming together slowly haha =P 

My goal is to have all modelling, texturing and lighting done by the end of these holidays coming. 

anyways, 

Thats all for now, 

Until next time ~
