My last post from the Bachelor project for this year at least. The animators are going to Copenhagen for 3 months to animate on different short films before we return back. (I'll be animating on a 2D project)
More concept art. I'll also mention that the project went trough a Major name change and is now called "The Backwater Gospel", and not "The Backwater Gospels"
At the moment we're starting up with our bachelor film project at school. All together we are 8 people on this team where most of us right now are working on concep art and visual development. More info can be found here (edit: new title) backwatergospel.blogspot.com
The guideline: Having pleased man waiting at the bus stop. After 3 seconds a bird takes a crap on his head. Show the reaction when he discovers the crap, then have him angrily searching the heavens for the source. Use 7 seconds.
Wish I had more seconds to work with for longer pauses or letting something more intresting to happen in the animation.
Here's the unrendered version of it. Maybe it's just me (since this is the version im looking at when animating) but the acting and animation felt slightly different when I rendered it out compared to my playblast.
