more modelling!

quick post of the days modelling acomplishments::

This is the floor mic infront of the guitar amp, will be small so i thought a low poly model was in order

Xray of the bass amp stacks

quick render

xray of guitar amp

quick render. when its textured, im hoping for the light to be catching the grill infront and illuminating the speakers behind slightly.

Stayed later today finishing up some more modelling, Im really pleased with the way the guitar amp is coming together. I think that the texturing will be a piece of cake so things are looking up already! Theres a occlusion version of the mic to, just for the hell of it

Modelling starts

Ive started getting into the modelling already, nothing fancy, just the hanging mic. dave showed me some pretty neat stuff using bones, clusters and locators to bend the wire around easily which as helped loasd....

Preprduction buisness

I dont have alot of time to spend drawing and on ideas this term due to the work load that ive dealt myself, but I did a sketch today whihc I think sums up the look id be happy to go with...

new project!

well alright! new term, new project... this term is rave on air, and all of the animation students have been asked to submit a 30 sec piece, basically of their chosing. ive opted to do a stage performance of a song by beck, called 10,000 pesos. (the song can be heard HERE). the most interesting part though will be the use of the musion stage which is going to be set up. Musion uses new technology to give the illusion of a holographic project (example HERE) pretty clever, and I think ill be able to pull off some really impressive results...
