Tomorrow will be the day I take all my spheres and actually make them lovely and hand crafted. They'll probably still be spherical but hopefully they will have a more sculpted look :)<br />Still nothing from the voice over artist I'm afraid, should she have emailed me back by now? I am a bit worried because I don't really know if I should have or not... :SMollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10912006967666578909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2767351775865621584.post-15464268462311262262011-05-17T20:05:07.476+01:002011-05-17T20:05:07.476+01:00Yeah - and the AE lessons swap to Wednesday next w...Yeah - and the AE lessons swap to Wednesday next week - it's because Pete Wallace is a busy working man with clients who keep moving their deadlines - the real world, you see. Tom's right about the spheres etc; it might help to think of them as 'hand rolled' from clay; there would be slight depressions and elliptical curves if they'd been 'hand made'. I know you're having a really creative time experimenting - and that's brill - but don't lose sight of your visual concept - i.e. what is the thing you're trying to achieve/working towards. This may be a moment to simply revisit your intentions and re-focus. I'm not suggesting for one minute that you're doing anything wrong, but there are many other elements of this scene that require as much care and attention, and your situation reminds me now of when I polish and polish and polish a single paragraph in a chapter - at the expense of the story. Use Simon tomorrow to identify a formula or recipe you can apply in general terms to your world and its visual rules. Don't run out of time.<br /><br />Oh - any sign of that voice-over, yet?tutorphilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11842833126210822641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2767351775865621584.post-42028260976030430092011-05-17T19:39:33.731+01:002011-05-17T19:39:33.731+01:00We actually had our AE tutorials today so I don...We actually had our AE tutorials today so I don't think we have anything tomorrow (they keep swapping the days around I think :P) So if that's the case, I can grab you first thing if you're free?
