Oct 6 - Decisions and working my ass off

I have decided that going for the 2D route would probably be easier and result in a better animation. There are simply too many problems with the 3D route. It takes longer, its harder to control and hasn't produced a very nice result. I'll still need to talk to James about this as it is a client based job.



I have been making the 2D assets in Photoshop to speed up the process and this seems to be working well. The ease of creating them makes everything a bit faster. Might need to go back later and upgrade everything, but that should be fairly simple too.

Try to get everything done in the week or so. Got to get 50 hours down in a matter of weeks, so it going to be very full on, especially with the personal project coming up.



I have had to watch several tutorials on how to use the rigging system in Toon boom harmony. I haven't used the rigging in Harmony before as we were never taken through the process in the first year (in hindsight we probably should have been). Just some on the job learning as it were. For the future, I apologize if the character animation is of a somewhat novice quality.
