Samurai Genji Rig and Story Board Complete

Just wanted to update the blog to inform everyone that the rigs for both characters have been completed. Also, the story board for the short is complete as well. Allthough it was done roughly, and when I say rough I mean ROUGH, I can see all of the great ideas for the short starting to come to life!

Curently, im now moving on to filming my references for the short. My goal is to start animating within the next two weeks. Last year, I posted that the project was exspected to be completed by march of this year. uhhh, thats not going to happen haha. Its a great challange finding time inbetween work to work on this project as I curently work two jobs. However, the good news is that the project IS moving along.

Moving forward, I have changed the exspected completion time of the short to January, 1 2015. I estimate it will take me roughly 6 monthes to produce good solid animation on the level that I have invisioned this short to be on since the begining of its creation. The remaining 4 months will be used to create special effects and composite them along with the shorts credits. I will try to update the blog as often as posible as I go further with the animation stage of the project.
