Alexis Bloom Week 04 Journal
Flipper Flop
This was a fairly average week. I think I could have gotten a little more work done than usual, but I’m still on target for all of my deadlines. I’ve been focusing mainly on getting shots from sc01 “render ready”, meaning having their animation finalized and ready to render for the final product. In addition to that, I had to take on Zack’s stair shots. Animating people falling down the stairs at various angles is a lot harder than one might think. There’s not a lot of “exact” reference I could use, so I had to resort to a lot of cartoons for reference. Unfortunately for me this week, I had some family issues come up, and it set me into a funk that lasted two days or so. I got really tired, and was late to dailies meetings a few times. However, I know you can’t stay sad forever, so I’m trying to buckle down and get this stuff done. The weather is definitely lifting my spirits.
Examples: Here are the shots I did this week.
