Catapault Box & Trolley

Here's the finished box and trolley for Tifficate in scene 2.

uv mapping finally done

after all the hard work all the crashes all the curruption and geniside its finally DONE

Backgrounds

I've added the props that have been put on the shared drive. This is close to the end sky colour as well. Let me know if you have made something that I've missed.

The flags are animated now ...

Theme song

That's right, Tifficate and Loin now have a theme song.

"One has a bowl cut, one has a mustache. They are Tiff and Loin."

A big thank you to Ash for recording it

Audio

I have most of the sound effects. There are some that we will need to record in audio. For example, the whilstling sound as the catapult rises and then falls, wind noises and footsteps.

There are a couple of extra vocal noises from Tiff and Loin that I would like too. Mmmm's and Hmmm from Loin for when he is looking at the box and thinking,  and some noises for when Tiff is lining up the box.

Tifficate's tower walk cycle

I've redone the walkcycle for when Tifficate walks up Daphne's tower...

Tifficate Climbing Walk Cycle

Here is the walk cycle for Tifficate climbing the tower. I thing the arms need to swing a bit sooner. I'll have a play with it....

Walk Cycle

Here's the rough for Tifficate's walk cycle when he goes up Daphne's tower with suckers on his feet...

Progress Report

Everything is going very well. We have a shot list, and everyone has chosen shots to do the animation roughing-out for. Most of the 3D backgrounds are worked out and rough renders have been done for everyone to work with.

All of the symbol libraries for the characters are finished as well. Here they are...

 

There is still a bit of fine tuning to do with Tifficate and Loin's horses.

Objects used in the Backgrounds

Crates Bottles

Barrel

catapult 2.0

CATAPULT 3

CATAPULT 2

CATAPULT

uv mapping was a fail going to try again soon here is what we have so far

Backgrounds

I have rendered a heap of shots so that the animators have got some idea of the backgrounds they'll be working with, and so that we can have a look at camera angles for the 2D vs 3D. I have also done a rough 3D animation for the background of the hanky drop in the first scene so we can look at the timing.

 Something like this for Scene 2 when the box is rolled out etc

For Daphne on the balcony

The valley so far...

Here is where I am up to with the valley so far. I have added the ocean on the right, and some flowers and rubbish

Audio

Today we recorded the voices for Tifficate, Loin and Daphne, and I must say, they sound pretty good. 

I AM LOIN!

I am now the voice of Loin... Just thought I'd add that.

It Hath Begunneth
