Tracer Widow Animation - Game Plan + Updates
Added 2022-10-02 18:50:28 +0000 UTCOkay so realistically going through the plan it does involve waiting on other people to send audio etc, this increases the time frame a chunk but still going ahead.
Giving the project an ideal time of 1 month to 1.5 months to complete and when waiting will be pushing forward the next animation plans so not wasting time with at least one commission image between each week, and updates for the relevant tiers ($5+ image updates & $15 animation updates).
It's going to be an adjustment but I feel this is the realistic next step. NO MORE COMMISSIONS WILL BE TAKEN AT THIS CURRENT TIME, they will reopen when the pit is dry or the animation is complete and not before.
If the new skins are unlocked for Tracer & Widowmaker I would like them in the scene but no promises.
Monday - Tuesday = commission image first, then finalising the storyboard and putting a nail down for the audio people to do their thing. Weds-Fri = is going to be Mo-Cap days getting my buddy in to record her doing Tracer things and going through that.
I do have a chunk of other personal things through the week on my whiteboard and working around that. Stupid stuff like flu vaccine, D&D, Car to garage etc etc so will be having to pushing hard to keep on schedule.
As you can see... there is a lot involved but nothing I haven't done before, just adding in a little itty bitty story.
Wish me luck! will keep you guys in the loop and the work officially starts tomorrow.
Much love,
Director.

I know right? Whilst I always knew it was a lot of work involved, I think I have a new-found respect for the process of making a 3D animation...

2022-10-02 19:53:07 +0000 UTCOh it's a one man crew with a buddy I throw a few quid at here and there for animation mocap data, that is still only data that needs cleaning up and everything in between.
