The scary, ominous square-shaped deadline looms as the team focuses their efforts on painting backdrops, designing effects and polishing shots.
I worked on revamping the backgrounds of the beginning sequences. I also cleaned up Vivien's watercolor texture scans to create assets that can be used throughout the shots to add more depth. I also kept adjusting and finalizing the lighting in scenes 020_ice, 030_panic and 040_edge.
This week was mostly about going into previous shots and addressing feedback. Most prominent thing was probably the addition of Critter's feet and ears lighting up when he's eating or swimming.
This week was not very productive on my end, since there were many other things to do. I mainly worked on laying the foundation to work on the energy FX in the time I had left. This will continue more extensively in the next week!
This week I finally finished the shot 0090 from the seq 050 and with that all my shots are done for the movie, next week I will be helping with whatever is needed
