I've spent the past few days mostly writing on my dissertation, and I regret I haven't started it earlier. I've had a lot of ideas about what I want my animation to be, but they've been floating mostly through my mind, and I haven't put them black on white. The moment I did that I felt as if I had an epiphany, I started really liking my idea and my take on it (you can see a paraphrased version of a small bit of what I've written in my last blog post), I caught my second wind, even though I didn't know my first had slipped past me. I've actually had to take myself away from writing these past few days to do some animation.
When I'm talking about animation, my Final Year Project supervisor, Em Johnson, has booked my FYP group some time in the Phoenix Building's green screen studio tomorrow. I imagine that tomorrow will give me enough reference for the basics I need, e.g. someone leaning on a bar for a prolonged period of time, but probably not the more in-depth motions and over-all acting. Me and one of my flatmates have agreed to do this for each other (he has a similar FYP to me), we're learning each other's sound clips my heart and thinking of ways of doing it.
Hopefully, when I've gotten all of those references down I'll be able to really start getting somewhere on my animation, and finish blocking by February as scheduled.
