Shooting protocol (0:28 - 0:31)

Here's my shooting protocol for the 0:28-0:31 sequence.


I'll post other "behind the scene" pics here this week.

0:28 - 0:31 Sequence completed !

After hours of animation, wire removal, pictures cleaning (dust) and movie editing, the pan sequence (0:28 to 0:31) is completed.

Here it is.

I may change the framing a little, but it should remain the same. Not quite sure too, if i let the color correction like that.

I can count around 20 hours for the shooting and the post-production of these 3 seconds. I've learned a lot doing this sequence and i've improved my speed and confidence on almost every aspects of this art. If i had to do that scene again, i should do it in 12-15 hours.   I'm very excited about doing the next scene.

Beginner's mistake

Failure here, big one !  A rock on the set blocked the character's rail support from his course at the end of the sequence.  When i realized that, i though to myself that i didn't spent these last hours for nothing and have to "try" to let the rock slide a little bit, each frame til the rail could overpassed it.  Total disaster.

I'm gonna scrap these 20 frames and restart at the 45th frame of that 70 frames sequence.  8 hours invested on the "shooting" of this sequence yet and lost almost 3 hours this week on it. I'll try to finish it this week but, maybe not tomorrow.  Too pissed.
