Backgrounds

Between hanging out with family and friends, I've been coloring backgrounds here and there. Here is one of the last few shots of the movie. This background is 99% done, I just need to add one last thing in it but otherwise it looks good.

It's a Bit Nipply Out

School's out for a few weeks but the work doesn't stop. Besides coloring my backgrounds and possibly getting some animated keys done, I spent 10 hours with my music composer over the weekend recording a song from scratch that would fit. He's got a little studio set up in his house with guitars and keyboards and whatnot. The song is a little over 3 minutes in length and contains recorded guitars, bass, drums, and strings. I'm really happy with what we've done so far just recording rough stuff which doesn't sound rough at all.

Basically, I told him what I was looking for and what should happen where and then we'd play the animatic and he'd just start jamming on his guitar while watching the movie and then we'd chop it up into pieces we liked went on from there, layering each instrument on top of each other; it sounds pretty professional. We used Pro Tools to record and put the track together and I'm really excited about how the final mixed product will sound.

New Stuff On the Way

I've been working on backgrounds and just started to do some animation for Only In Dreams. I will be posting some finished work soon. Semester is wrapping up so I will finish coloring all of my backgrounds during the Christmas vacation and have lots to show.
