Timing and Preparation

Me: Due to time restrains – I have made a full schedual of what we are to do, i have been realistic and generous and included a few lye ins etc, but ive tried to be realistic with the work load per day and weekends etc. We together have to create 1,500 frames of animation. THIS is if we were going to work at 24fps. However Andy said today that we could work on double. This means we only have to animate 750 drawings. I have given us 14 days (which includes other work loads + weekends) As a group we need to sacrifice at least one of the weekend days per weekend to this project. This means we as a group of 5 have to get either on single frames, 1,500 framed animation- 22 frames done per day MINIMUM! This should be EASY to do guys!………… and if we worked on doubles at 750 frames over all we would need to animate a minimum of 11 frames per day!!!! Again we could churn this out. If we worked on doubles and we all did 25 frames per day we could get the drawing done in 6 days….. 750f/25f=30/5people=6 days….. I think though we should aim to get something like 30 finished frames per day. This means we could get it done in 5 days if we all work hard at it. We obviously need to make sure that each section of the animation runs smoothly, but ive been thinking about it, and as daunting as it sounded thismorning, we can get it done. But Remus – The feel i have got from your idea/ proposal is that we need a lot of computer graphic work done to it afterwards, so this will leave us with MUCH more time to do what you would like to be done to make a high quality finished product!!! I hope that makes sense? 

Remus : I’ve looked through the schedules and they look great. I’m obviously willing to work overtime and animate a bit extra in order to get things moving more smoothly. I’ll also post some tutorials on animating in photoshop on the blog on Wednesday.

Me: Brilliant – i will make sure that everyone gets a full print out copy tomorrow or Wednesday!
