Updated Version (Again)

Philip sent me the new score last night. It is work very great this time! Can't wait for the final combination!

In the term of visual, I have done comptest session, and doing colour correction. The time is running out...

Shockwave

I created this shockwave based on 2D technique (using composite) due to the stortage of time.

One and Half Week to the Deadline!

Today, I had a meeting with Wayne to discuss about updated music score which I received from Philip. We found that there is something should be adjusted again. Firstly, I will ask Philip to add echo after the electric shockwave In the exploding shot. This may help to improve the sense of blackout. Secondly, we found that the first score works better in the second half of the film because the revised version is softer, and may be not powerful enough for the main message. The climax of the film is the moment of lightening the match (frame number 1 in the last shot) to when the girl turn to face with other (frame number 130), which shows the victory moment.

By the way, I have got all rendered passed, excluding the first shot in which I need more time to improve it, and be working on compositing.

Comptest and Rendering Problem

I made this comptest by using real rendered passes. It is alright as an image. But when the camera is moving, the ground's edges start to blink. I think that there might be some rendering problem. I have been attempting to solve it during this weekend, but will use it anyway when the composite process starts. :(

As you may notice, this version is a little darker, and have higher contrast. Its depth of field has been increase slightly too. I have got about 80% of passes sitting in the render farm now.

Render Passes

According to the shortage of time, I have planed to basically render these 6 passes in every shot although they might not be flexible enough for composite. Anyway, I believe that Normal Map may be able to solve some predicted problems.

New Music Score!

HOORAY! I have just received a new music score from Philip Martin, the musician, this afternoon. It is worked properly in the animation! Its mood is absolutely touching and smooth. Anyway, I think that It just needs to be adjusted some detail a little bit to exactly match with what I have imagined. I am going to check it carefully and make a note tonight.

Updated Lighintg, Rendering and Composite

I try to compound two stages together in this test. Obviously, it need to be worked more in the metropolis lighting.
