We’ve finally done it! After some setbacks due to the “Blizzard of 2010″, we were able to animate, render, and compile the final product. We ran into more difficulty when we found out we weren’t registered as a team on Autodesk’s website, but fortunately we were able to get past all of that. Here’s the final product:

VLOG Week 4
February 15, 2010 |
Sorry for the late post, but the week 4 vlog is up! We were put back greatly by the major snow storm and canceled build nights. Philadelphia set a new record of over 70 inches of snow last week and we are supposed to get a few more inches tonight!
The vlog crew is back and should have the week 5 vlog done by the end of today.
Let It Snow, Let It Snow

So… we got a bit of a break this past weekend thanks to the Nor’easter that brought us about 16″ of snow. Unfortunately we lost 2 build days because of it, and with more snow to come this week some of us are getting a little nervous. With only 15 days until shipping, we’re getting into build overdrive (no pun intended!) and are adding extra hours for this week. So move aside homework! (And I guess I won’t be getting much sleep this week either…)
And as much as I love snow (really, I do!), I just hope we can stay enough on schedule to finish in time. It’s about to get really stressful…

Animation Week 4
February 4, 2010 |
Sorry for the lapse in posts. Modeling is now complete, and we have moved on to putting everything together. We are still having a bit of trouble switching from our Blender background, but we are steadily becoming more comfortable with Maya and we’re getting better. Right now we are making skeletons for our meshes, adding textures to materials, and learning the basics of cameras and motion. With the deadline of February 15th quickly approaching, all we can do is to keep on working!
