The premiere is set, info here. There will be Q&A sessions after both showings so RSVP and pop out if you're in the area.
Things are wrapping up on JC. Film's set. Commentary tracks have been recorded. Been learning quite a bit about Blender as I forced myself to use it. That sounds bad, but I personally fall into the "learn by using" kind of camp, so with books at the ready I sat and used it for a few shots in the movie.
With the majority of the DVD done I now turn my attention to something we had discussed doing as a nice little bonus and tribute. Jim, one of the writers, came up with some good ideas and I cranked out a quick version of one yesterday. He's going to be doing the final I think, unless my doodling is OK.
In other news, I've "finished" the Crow T Robot model and been working on something else in there. I'm sure he's not quite as accurate as he could, or should, be. Plenty good for my needs right now. He's probably a bit heavy actually. I didn't bother with any mapping really, or modeling the detail of his body, I had planned to use some bump maps.
I've been working on modeling some things for a music video that I want to do. I've been thinking about releasing the Crow someplace in case anyone wants it. Still thinking about it really as I haven't decided. Also may let go some of the things I was modeling for the music video, but only a few are even of questionable use elsewhere. I'll give it more thought, and if I do I'll just upload them to the website someplace.
OK, enough scatterbrained blogging for right now, back to blender to learn some more. Experimenting (sounds better then playing, right?) with animating Crow.
With this all out of the way it's back to The Attic. Foam runs, test makeups, and who knows what else.
Oh... SAG, don't strike. I need some money and a job this year.
