Grandad's Story - Act One Demo reel

Grandad's Story - First act complete

I have finally completed the first act!! This is the video I will be showing at the transcription crit this Thursday. I have edited it together with the storyboard and interspersed concept art and influence images to demonstrate what direction the second and third act will be going.

Grandad's Story - Update

Ok so a few more scenes done, one more to go and the first act is done.

@ALAN - For the last scene for act one, my character soars over London. I'm going to use the instancing tutorials to make the buildings, can you point me in the direction of an ocean shader tutorial for the river thames?

Grandad's Story - Update

I've refined the refinements and added some more geometry to the opening scene, BUT I haven't gone crazy as my grandfather wasn't "well off" at the time. I've looked at the lighting (again) and made some more alterations that have (hopefully) made it "punchier". I've also completed the next few scenes, hope you enjoy....




The next few scenes are ready to go, the street is modelled and textured. Here's a sneak peak....

@ Alan - can we arrange a meet to talk over how much of this I can realistically complete? I was hoping to complete the second act in time for the crit, however looking at my schedule it will more than likely be half of the entire animation. I'm planning to complete the rest throughout the summer holiday.
