Film Update

Alright Team Pigeon

Here's where we've been, where we are, and where we're going.

We started this project almost exactly 2 months ago. We have come a long way since then from the birth of a story and a couple fun characters drawn to life with our fantastic visual development team. All 3D modeling is finished and each asset is being textured now. We have figured out how extensive camera layout is and the proper tools to create a real movie. This next week the first 10 seconds of the film will be mapped out. Rigging is well under way paving the way for animation. While our animators are working so hard our texturing will come to a close and lighting will commence. By this point we will be all back together in Provo and we will be able to put in a few extra hours each week throughout the semester to see all the organized shots, animation, and finally finish up with some help from special fx and rendering. By the end of October the end product will be in sight. We will work closely with a foley artist and a few music majors to make a soundtrack to make this project come to life and maybe even enter it in some competitions. Amazing how long 30-40 seconds takes... Thank you all for your hard work this summer. It will pay off in the end.
