Wow, do you know your shutter speed?

30 FPS i think, I know I need to turn it down in the future to get the saber whirls right. Also, the actual spins are twice as fast, I just slowed it down. So, anyone got a job for me?

shutter speed and frame-rate are two very different things, Maher.
30FPS and a shutter speed of 60 is quite common on NTSC cameras, whilst PAL has 25FPS and a shutter speed of 50. It's all in how much light the lens lets in, and the result of a high shutter speed can result in lack of motion blur.

As I said earlier, my entire team is put on hold until we get more word from the filmies etc. The only b0t we have so far, is on a sheet of paper on Eivind's desk.

ok, not a big problem. Since we know we will have a CG BOT I think maybe we should get a test going. (from a filmies opinion).
Is the team on hold because they are working on other projects or is it just not worth building any models until we know what's going to happen with the film in general? thinking

The script is being re-written, we still need a couple of "unit directors" and there's a whole load of work to get done before we can get into the serious CG stuff.

Now, if we each do one thing at a time, do it to the very best of our abilities, and then move on, when we assemble all of the pieces, it should be greater than the sum of its parts.

Eh? wink

We already have a design for BOT and so since we know for sure that that is our main character... I assumed it would be appropriate to have a test standing by... but if nobody is up to it, I can wait. Just because the script is changing a little bit does not stop BOT from being a CG character. batting

Some suggestions from our creative mind;






Now, I already went for design 3, with some major modifications, but I thought I'd let everyone see the first three drafts, to get a general idea of how Eivind's style is, and if there's something else than our major b0t we could use. I also took into consideration the modelling/animation skills it would take to realise this, which is PART of why I exluded concept 2 as the main char. That, and the fact that it looks like a gorilla :P

These sketches are some weeks old now, but was only recently scanned, and I assume the latter iterations will be both quicker, and more detailed, since Eivind now has a design to go from, in stead of just doodling away.

Let us know what you think so far, at least happy


There you go, JedSithor wink
