Scenes count down

http://mayshing.deviantart.com/art/To-Tell-you-animated-147344662

As of 12/20/09



23 untouched shots to go, 12-15 weeks left until end of March.
Theoretically speaking, if starting now i finish 3 shots a week i can make it.
But that is never the reality, so it will be better if i finish animating as much as i can on the minor sequences during the break. But i think i am keeping track pretty well despite the need to stop production for a few weeks for my maya class and clients.

animation test

I am able to reproduce the link quality with sai, just being able to do it in digital realm will save a lot of money, just need better tweening to be convincing... and adding watercolor texture won't be hard.
i also need to study the old film more closely and figure out a way to repeat it with people with lower skills level so its possible to mass produce, it will never be like the master piece, but at least it might extend it's glory.

A lot of Chinese student has been exploring this style: (I will be self-studying this I guess)

A clip at work... for possible promotion sake.

The sound needs to be edited by the VA herself, but i have to work with what i have right now. :P

Its a 3D and commission weekend

Busy with 3D UVing... finally start to get a hang of it, got the Set up machine working, and went to meet a friend in NYC on the weekend. Finished all 32 pages of manga for a client, and layout for Frank's (IBC's producer) project.

Not much done for my thesis at all this weekend. *is depressed* But i had to take the time to complete other projects. T_T I want to get back to my thesis now.

A screen shot on Edepth anime

I did sc 17 earlier than expected, and pulled it off in 1 day. XDDD Elysse helped to color Angel now i am just waiting for Jessica over the weekend. :)

now just wait for any official green light before i make any animatics.


Good news: according to this guy, Princess and the Frog pre-sale has already reached 3.2 million. XD I am relieved to see that number. So very.... very relieved. But i think we need another big feature to do well in order to bring back 2D in full swing.
