*sigh* new brief

Im uploading all this in one go, since I've been too lazy to blog. Been concentrating on my digital environment project for majority of the term.

Aims of the Unit

• To enable students to supplement possible career specialisms within the animation industry through the development of ancillary skills.
• To enable students to further develop portfolios of work demonstrating advanced proficiency in the specialism of their choice.
• To provide experience of establishing and developing personal project schedules and tracking progress towards project completion.
• To further develop critical awareness within the students of their personal skills, and the ability to generate research strategies for continuing enhancement.

Project Brief

For this project we will be building on your existing animation and compositing skills. You will be introduced to Maya Matchmove camera techniques, lighting, advanced UV editing and modelling and have opportunities to improve your rigging and animation skills. To make it all manageable you will first be introduced to project management and tracking software.

As a side note, all my fellow students all recieved the FULL brief VERY late in the term. We were sent a VERY condensed summery of the brief with no actual criteria, or what we would be assessed on, AFTER the snow weeks. The brief wasnt available on moodle either. Apparently it wasn't, after checking it out for myself, the page was clearly empty. Maybe a small mistake? It might've been put on hidden for a very long time. However, even without a brief, the short summery reflected the same messege as our last project from last term, therefore work was easier to plan out. The only addition would be to create a blog each, a small schedule and a key value to add to the sense of quality;Tracking.
