Weekly Update #14

No progress this week either. I ended up upgrading my computer to the fact that I ended up building one. It's a pretty beefy budget system that's great for gaming and working.

In the near future I want to get another graphics card to run SLI. The new Adobe CS4 suite utilizes GPUs now so running Flash and Photoshop should be much faster. Not to mention rendering in Maya will take less time.

Weekly Update #13

No progress this week. Computer was down for half the week as my power supply blew out late Sunday night. Had to order a replacement and what not. Been busy with school and other stuff.

Mega Man 9 came out today for Wii. Can't wait to check it out.

I'm selling this Guitar Hero 3 bundle of mine on ebay.

Weekly Update #12

More cleanup work, just taking it easy for a while. Classes began and I'm just starting to get a new routine going. Homework will eventually get in the way of Cosmic Chase but I'll try not to let it overshadow it completely.

Weekly Update #11

More of the same. Tying down frames, doing line work. This week I would like to clean up some line work.

I've been keeping accurate records of the project as time has passed. It's fun to look back and see different incremental saves and seeing the amount of progress that's been made over the years. In the future, I'd like to break down certain shots and go through them in-depth and talk about how it was set up and created and everything that goes along with the workflow at the time. But that won't be until after the movie is released. Stay strong.
