Project update

Managing to complete a fair amount today I'm pleased with the progress I've been making. I have been trying to clean up certain elements as I continue to rotoscope the scenes, this will continue after all intial rotoscoping is completed.

The headshapes, typeface options and animatic should be ready for publishing tomorrow along with some background design work. Once the headshapes are complete I will be able to work on the fall scene which will be one of the biggest animation challenges of the project.
The shaking scene also seems to working quite well now I have both characters nearly fully animated.

Head shape test for fall rotoscoping.

after this test i found it will be vital to create a set of shapes as a framework to create my heads around so that i keep my shapes corresponding to the angles.

walk forwards: rotoscope

the first renders before hair. This is for a shot of the victim walking before the collapse.

saviour runs in: first rotoscope

here are the the first renders after ive completed some of this shot where somebody finds the collapsed victim.

Shake; first rotoscope

first test runs for the rotoscoping for the shaking scene.
The difficulty has been found matching layers and being able to edit fluently between them afterwards.
I plan to use markers when completing animation where markers will halp keep certain leyers in place.

Fianl Dialogue.

After being checked here is the final dialogue. It has notes for the voice actors here.
