finishing scene 7
It's amazing, but my desire to finish my animation is stronger that finishing Harry Potter, I just read about 150 pages of it. Animation really is my ultimate addiction. o_O

Yesterday I finished scene 7. Which leaves me with only the transport sequence of scene 2 and the final scene, scene 8, left to do. In other words: give me one more week and I'll have the whole damn thing finished. Leaving me with two whole weeks to fine-tune. And let me assure you, two weeks to fine-tune is a lot of time if you consider that I produced the entire animation (backgrounds, puppets, effects, etc) under eight weeks. So it appears I really will have the time to give a lot of the less convincing shots some extra care, hopefully enhancing the whole experience even further. :)

Today I spend my morning building the cast of transit extras. I'm quite pleased how they turned out, even though most of them won't enjoy more then 3 seconds of screen time. :)









I just hope I'll hear word from my composer in the next few days...

Haha, wow, I love how they all have a unique look to them. Instead of copy-pasted silhouttes, they're actual people, and they look just like the ones you see waiting for the subway...

The nice thing about animation is that I can be my casting director. I want all people in my movie to be unique, easy to separate by giving them unique physical features. Something I learned from the interviews of Milos Forman, the celebrated director of such movies as One Flew Over The Cookosnest and Amadeus, who hates movies where similar looking actors are hired making it hard to make out who is who. :)

I totally love that guy in the background with the hat and the big ears. Is that a very smirky smile on his face or is it his nose, with his mouth covered under the zipper?
