CONCEPT

This week's deadline is Friday to have Concept all finished.

-Pigeon
-Main Character
-Bench

Smaller Assets we can take a bit more time on and hand them off to kids that are accepted into the animation program this week to be modeled, or as directed by Aaron.

Make sure you keep in mind those down the pipeline. How is it going to be modeled? Will the pigeon have feathers? If so, what do they look like? Maybe even create different views and angles and even closeups on more detailed parts, so in Maya its pretty seamless to convert to 3D. For texturing, what material are thje main character's clothes? Will it be loose, tight? If you don't have colors chosen yet, it's okay. But try to have an idea of a back story for this guy so we can get to know his character and give him the personality he deserves.

A great example of a shader packet is from Pixar. If you guys would like to put together a texture packet so that your characters you create will actually end up looking like the characters you see in 3D, it might be a good idea to create one of these.
