It's done! The animation is all complete and everything has been handed to Maik to being rendering. The reason Maik is taking over rendering, along with Dave, is because there have been some recent problems with the render farm in college, the problem being that it's rendering capabilities have been considerably reduced in the last few weeks. Maik had been looking into buying a computer that was a lot more powerful than his laptop that could take over rendering and heavy jobs in Maya, but hadn't planned on getting it this early. But when we found out that the render farm was playing up, he went ahead and bought it so that we could render off that. That's commitment! And has really saved us in the final hour for rendering, so we all owe him a big thank you. But I'm not giving it to him, because the power will go to his head and we'll have a mutiny on our hands. Anyway, me and Joe and uploaded all our scene files to adrive.com, which have been taken down by Dave and Maik and they are just reapplying textures and lights and then scene 2 and 3 are being sent to render.



Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh. That was my big sigh of relief to have all the animation done. As soon as the rendered shots come out then it's over to James and Malachi for sound and editing.
