I have been unable to get the universal countdown clock on either aftereffects or Premiere pro as they do not have the plug ins for them. I have tried downloading them off the internet, but i have not been able to find what i need. I therefore may have to make the countdown clock myself.

I need to include on it the program information.

The time code start and the length of the clip.

Working with Rochelle

After finding out we had to team up to pass this unit, I teamed up with Rochelle. Although she wanted to do a short film, i wanted to go with the idents, so she happily obliged.

We had a few ideas, some were liked others not so much.

In the brief we were told to do 30 seconds or more, so we had the idea of doing three idents. We wanted to make a trilogy of very similar things, However when it got to the meeting we were asked for just one, and we made it twenty seconds instead.

I like working with rochelle, she gives the work i do a better look to it with her lighting and material expertise.

We had communication by text and Email, but every thing was pretty straight forward, it was just a matter of getting it done. So we didn't have any problems.

I think i spent a bit too long on the animating and bits, as i had a few problems, so rochelle didnt get as much time to do all the lighting and bits she wanted.

I think we did pretty we together though, and we got a good outcome of the project.

Idents

Here are a couple of indents i looked at for research..

As we are doing idents, i looked in to what some looked like...... I chose a mixture of ones to get a full range and some ideas for ours.This BBC sting, is colorful and eye catching with movement, Like i would like to interpret in my ident.The CBBC ident is colorful and comes on screen in a fun way for kids, and relates to its audience. With one of the words collaboration for rave live, i hope that ours too gives off the right feel for our customers. It says something about Rave live and its students being collaborative. .

Animating

When i Was animating, i Attached the butterflies to the letters, but then i was unable to un-attach them without key framing the letters, so instead i turned the visibility off of the butterflies and put another butterfly in its place. I MADE THEM FLAP, AND TO MAKE THEM Look like they were flying, i made each one bounce up and down, as that is how butterflies fly. moved.

Anamatics

This is the animatic shown to the rave live branding team. It doesn't show the butterflies, but you get the main idea.

Keith - Flag

Keith working on a project that is about sport asked me to create a flag for his indent as he was having trouble working out how to use n-cloth. So i created a scene for him with a flag in it. he wanted the flag to really flexible, but i needed anchor points for it be able to move, otherwise the flag floats down. so i picked the two corners allowing it to move more freely. I attached it to a small box which was then animated from side to side to drag in the flag. Much like i did for the butterflies but i had a post for that.

This is what i gave to Keith. It took me a while to make it fly like i wanted as the wind was playing up, and i needed to turn the gravity of so that it could move in the wind and not be dragged down.

Emails between us.....

Let me know if any problems

youll need to just assign a new texture.

I animated the box, which is only visable at the begining of the animation at the moment.

Third file to go into particles if you need it.

Any problems gimmie a call.

Schedule:

1st of April. Our deadline to meet is the 20th of april where we have to hand in for Rave live...

Making it broadcast ready....

The rave live team wanted 10 seconds of black before and after the actual ident in order to get it all in. So when i handed it in i did just that.

To make it broadcast ready i rendered it out in HD quality at wide screen size.

Show reel.xx

I have found it hard to get dvd studio pro to work as i wanted it to.

Some of my files are not in a compatible format for it to work in DVD studio pro, so ill have to re-render them out in the correct format.

I will also start to look at iDVD as it may be easier to get the dvd to work.
