With Scene 7s character shots lit. I started work on scene 5 which consisted of the safehouse and a few shots outside during the sunset. So it was a bit different than my night time shots, and I had to worry a lot about the brightness of the sun on the white fur of our character Xilvi and had to be cautious of not making the scene too yellow either.

Recently I have just been doing lighting for our characters on a shot by shot basis it took a lot longer than expected due to other class work as well as the performance of some of our scenes within Maya, It was chipped away at until it was completed, albeit a little later than expected but the work got done.

I am slowly starting to realize how much work I have cut out for me as, I delve into our pipeline and naming conventions it was a bit confusing at first, but repetitions soon took over and I was able to easily navigate scenes although optimization issues would soon become a beast of its own.

More lighting was done for the film involving the safehouse scenes and it all started to come together as new textures were applied and updated
Post 20 LIGHTING
Worked on lighting creating realistic candles from a 2d plane and a deformer applied and put on a set driven key.

Our group was getting sick this week. So I spent the week doing assignments and readings for some of my other classes. I also went back and watched our most recent cut of our short and looked for places that I could put those silhouettes I was working on. I also have to do more set dressing with the props. I want the city to feel alive, to feel lived in.

Our group met twice again this week, I worked on applying a base layer of lighting to our scene layouts. I forgot to take a screenshot of my renders this week but my group liked the work I was doing. We also kind of broke off into our own "Departments" Andy and Tan on animating, Roxy and I on filling the scenes up with our props and Some texturing here and there. I started lighting but will pivot from that to whatever else when needed.

Getting back from break felt great our group met again and we began to plan out our semester for that week. Everyone got their roles and goals that they wanted completed by our first production pass. I got to work brainstorming lighting ideas that ccould make our city look more lived in and alive than it is currently.

Recently our group has had me remake a few of our placeholder props as well as get my guild hall into some of the play blasts. I have still been working on texturing some props.

We have sorted out many irregularities and reflected upon many of the critiques having to do with the pacing of our film in general. As our groups story borders made corrections and changes I have been working on some of the textures.

I have been feeling burnt out recently so I took some time to catch up on my other classes and study for midterms. We are currently working on getting our film fully 3d for our next production pass.

Our group had a huddle with our teachers after our last production passes, we came up with a clear plan and an end goal to reach it by. We are now hard at work laying out our scenes, creating referenced blueprints with many of our props and assets we have made and are working on decorating our city to make it look alive.
Also below is a lighting test for a scene I am working on, had to put it on the back burner until I layout more scenes.

Took it easy recently as I had some of my projects in other classes due and needed to put a little extra time into that. But recently for the short film I have started texturing props and using a stylization filter in conjunction with our base texture. I have also started to light a few scenes. Pictures to follow.

These past weeks our story has undergone some changes from our last production pass, due to some conversations and notes from our instructors, we are changing our story a bit to be more of a capture quest, this saves us time and also fixes some of the pacing of our story. I have been working on some lighting tests as well as starting to texture some of my assets.

I am Back... After a summer full of more classes and working I am back writing these blog posts to document my journey in working with a group to craft a short film. My main focuses since I have been back have been modeling and reformatting props as well as making sure everything is in the right spot.
Here is some of the models I have made so far while getting back into the swing of things...
The first prop I made was a carrying tube for our dragon like thing Glitz. Our main character needed to be able to sling the package over their shoulder whilst maintaining enough mobility to parkour around the city. So I went to researching shapes and ways that would also make sense within our world, eventually I came up with a quiver design and the group liked it. Needs to be textured obviously so off to do the UVs.
The other asset I made was a building its supposed to be a monolithic structure that would be within the city centers rich district. My group thinks it looks good so far but I know that I will need to revisit the model in the near future to make it more distinct and not so symmetrical.

More revising our layouts with the feedback from our review, I worked a bit more on layouts and revisited some props I was supposed to be making like the light post and magical box. Getting ready to work more on our 3d layouts this week. Detailing spots within the layouts where our character will appear in the 3d animatic.

This week was focused on mostly overlooking our layouts and adjusting based on feedback given by the group. So more of a chill week on my part but our storyboard artists are hard at work and we are starting to work out our 3d animatic.
