Production Schedules Continued...

FIRSTLY.....THE ORDER IS TOP TO BOTTOM!!!


The top is the original start production schedule that was intended for the final outcome.

As the project progressed, we were beginning to realise that things were taking longer to do than other parts. At the start we had to drop the animatic and storyboards as we jumped straight into the project from the outset as we had already set ourselves alot to do in the time we had. Once the corridor modelling was complete Spencer began texturing it. This was when the effort and time constraints started. The texturing was taking longer than anticapated and we started to think if we could get stuff done for rave on air. So we set ourselves the goal of getting the forst two environments modelled and textured and redered out for rave on air. But this failed and we were running out of time to even get the first corridor done for rave on air and we decided to drop the production of the third room and just concentrate on the two rooms.
The corridor was nearly done for rave on air but as it was too little and no composition we decided not to hand anything in for rave on air and just concentrate on the main deadline on the 19th june. The production of the main room went well but again the texturing took 2 weeks to complete and this was alot longer than originally anticipated and reduced the amount of rendering and compositing time available to us but never the less we got it done on time.

The production plan worked well but we had to drop a few things along the way but this comes part and parcell of animation work in general and realisticly, but we have produced a film that we are both happy and proud of and feel that we have achieved alot.
