LATE UPDATE

Sorry for the late update. I meant to have this done on Monday, like I normally do. Oh well, so here is my test for all you to see. It should be pretty interesting when everything is done.

Animation Shadow Test w/o environmental lighting

Above is the link to my Vimeo with a shadow test for the character.

SHADOW TEST (first out of many)

Shadow Test at Vimeo

Click on the above link to see my shadow test ;D

I'm in the process of fixing it and adding more shadows to the rest of the characters in my video. Will be done in the next week or two (hopefully).

UPDATED AND NEARLY FINISHED

Final animation without shadows but with sound

Above is a link to vimeo displaying my animation. This is an early update.

I want to add shadows from hear on out to all the characters and add a couple more group/ crowd shots on my animation.

The good part is that I am technically done, I will just have to continue doing more work to make this animation awesome looking.

I am working on...

Hey there, Jeff again.

I am currently working on numerous scenes for my animation. Unfortunately, Blogspot doesn't like SWF format files. So I cannot post anything at the moment. I will be posting some WIP scenes later tonight via vimeo, again. I need to combine a series of scenes to show exactly what I'm working on (also, vimeo says my files are too small individually, but I'll fix that).

I plan on, like I said showing these things tonight.
-Work in Progress as far as animation. I have a lot of roughs.
-Character design sketches (again)
-Background designs (which will be added onto this post)
-Concepts
-And last, but not least, my poster!

Poster first

 3/4 view from top - down. Not included in animation.
 3/4 from below - up. Included in animation.
 Opening scene
 Bubbleview. Not included, unfortunately. I loved this idea though.
 Concepts for the backgrounds
 Piano shop- window scene. For passerby(s). Included.
 Rolling scene. Not included.
 Moving perspective scene. Not included.
 Running scene. Included.
 Final scene. Truck included. Piano, maybe included.
 Piano Store scene, from outside. Included.

EARLY ANIMATIC WITH SOUND and other posts

Awesome, so here is my animation thus far. Lots of finished animation, no real roughs anymore. I have some crowd designs I will post in another post next week to replace the video that was suppose to happen. Also, I'll be posting some blank sound files onto here. The video is blank, it is just sound.


Both musical pieces were created by me with my bass guitar only.

music 1 - not the piece I chose and music 2 - the piece I chose
both can be found at this fixed link

alright and here is the animation/ animatic

To keep you guys guessing as to how I will make this animation even more fancy and interesting, I'll be working and re-working certain things on this project. Hopefully, some tests will make you oogle. Probably not though, as I kind have already mashed the tests on here. However, the tests I will do will be done reversed, traditional, flash and symbol/ looped flash. ;]
