Pirates of The Produce Aisle 2: The Rise of PatchesPatches blend shapes are on the way for some reason they would not blend, which is annoying! I don't know why but it is a little worrying!

Guard and Patches Blendshapes!
Hey. I completed the guards blend shapes today as well as getting about a quarter way through patches'. For some reason I could not activate the mental ray plugin for patches so the render looked crappy. I wanted to create a little playblast of all the guards facial animations, but for some reason, I could not key anything...weird. So you'll have to settle for these renders.Monday, 29 March 2010
My Goals
By The end of Wednesday I'm supposed to have all of the Guard's blend shapes done and about half of Patches' done.
By next week I hope to have Breadbeard's blend shapes done.
Bring it on!

Dean's Neutral PositionHowdy one and all here's the Guard's blend shapes so far. I was looking at all of the Maxformaya expressions and trying to incorporate them into the guard. One in particular sucks!

SECOND YEARS
We pitched to the second years on Tuesday and, apart from a horribly delivered pitch from myself, we had quite a good turn out. I've emailed some of them and will finish off emailing the rest soon. I've seen some of their work and it's pretty impressive, some extremely so.
Basically I want to create a folder for them in the public folders. In there I want an environment, some assets (for texturing and lighting), the character models (for uv mapping) and a rigged model of Breadbeard (for animators).
From there, they can do some tests and we can see if they are up to the challenge.

Progress
Right guys.
It's official, we have to work our butts off. I chatted with Dan and we need to employ second years to help with almost everything.
Ash, it's unrealistic to think you can texture the whole film by yourself so I'm trying to get another UV, texturer, possibly two.
We could possibly do with a rigger.
We also need someone to help with the lighting.
Finally we need a load of animators. They have to be good but we need a lot. We have 70 shots!
I'm pitching to the second years again tomorrow so hopefully, my award winning personality could possibly attract them to the film.If I get the second years it does not mean that we can relax. We will have to work our behinds off.
On a lighter note, if all goes well the film should be not awful....which is good.

PATCHES UPDATE!
Patches! I updated him the other day, then Tom and I worked on him on Friday. Today I gave him some fingernails and tweaked some of the verts. He's looking pretty good. For some reason I couldn't mirror him though, my computer was being really bad!
