That's pretty cool, Andy. You need to help up animate on TWO.

I'd be a bit scared of that! What I've seen of TWO looks amazing... and a fair bit out of my league as far as animating goes...

Uh...? Have you been reading my blog? We're just friendly anitomatos over there in TWO land. You have a future in the movies, my boy.

Andy,

You have gotta be kiddin us.

 

Outstanding work on that short Quasi piece. My daughters Jessica and Julia were captivated and I had to explain the story of the Hunchback of Notre Dame. (Jessica knew it from Disney's version of course... so there was that eureka... "Oh I know that story" moment.)

 

If I had to pick at anything in your messin' with Quasi it might be to have him keep his gaze on the statue for quite a bit longer. Those lifeless stone gargoyles are his only friends and he's been reminded of it.

 

How long did that take you to animate?

I did it last night throughout the evening, 3 or 4 hours. I still like to break my audio down by sitting listening to the wav file and writing out a dope sheet. That was really how it came about. I was just getting back into the programme and messing around.

 

Glad your girls liked it!

 

Cheers AndyG

Writing out a dope sheet eh?

 

I'm embarrassed to say I have never seen anyone do that.

I've seen examples... but never the real deal.

If you ever find loads of spare time I know a discussion of dopesheets and planning of a shot would be magic to many of us.

 

Your Hunchback of Notre Dame project is intriguing.

I can't remember if you said this was a personal project or if it was otherwise.

I do know that you've got the project set up with some really nice models and sets.

I look forward to seeing more as you find the time.

 

(Hey look everybody... someone else that uses dopesheets!!!) Woo Hoo! :)
