30th of March to the 5th April 2015
This week was was a really productive week and I was challenged with creating all of Keith's animations for the final game. This was kind of fun mixed with hatred at the same time, as key frame animation, although you do not have to key every frame, is very tedious and I am not a huge fan of animating as it is, but it had to be done.
The final animations do look really nice though and I am very pleased with how they turned out. They show off his personality and character and they match with the overall theme of the game. Again Stu was a sport and allowed me to video him for the reference footage which again was extremely helpful as I was then able to animate him know how long movements would take and how long other aspects would be, again very helpful.
Once the animation was all finalised I added in the collectible script into the environment after placing all of the collectibles in the right place, and ensured that it worked correctly and added the totals up correctly.
Overall this week has gone very smoothly, although still a little behind, it doesn't feel like it's hanging over me anymore and I am getting on with the animating stage of the project ensuring that everything is done to a high standard and generally powering through it to get everything done in time.
