D&AD and other stuff

I havnt blogged in a long while, this is due to a few reasons.

1. I have been VERY BUSY with - Enterprize and inovation (which is a pile of gobledygook, from where i am concerned- dont feel like i have learnt much, and will not benefit, till possibly later in life)
I have been working non-stop on the D&AD 'Character' brief, as i have had a lot of responisbilities in our 3 person team. As i have the most experience in Maya, and most of the 3d responisbilities, i have had the most amount of work involved in the making , so i have been working at it soldly these past weeks, so i havnt spent a great deel of time into my personal development which is idealy working on my portfolio website, and fillling it full of content etc, to show off my skills the best etc. I have been creating extra content, but have not worked on some other stuff in a while, so i am going to be extra busy.

Deadlines, deadlines, when do they ever end! lol.

Foot control

for my character i am currently rigging it full al with controls, so far i have just spent the horrible task in making a 'foot control', which is a node parented to another node, so then it is easier to animate. However setting it up is quite a headache. It envolves creating a 'set driven key' and i had to animate 3 foot positions in order for me to alsso create a foot roll, which is an extra attribute attatched to the footcontrol, it is all rather complex, but i am still working on it, after all parctice should make progress, or at least it bloody better do,lol.

Local rotational axis

are a pain in the fukin arse!!! No seriously, in order to get my foot controller working probably i had to have all the balls of the joints rotating the same direction. It took me a while to figure out, but when i got there in the end i wa that happy that i banged on the desk in excitement and happiness, because i never thort it would work anyway, it did the end and thats the good thing.

goooge alien

as part of my personal development, i am creating content for my website, and at the same times i am developing new skills, in Maya etc. I have started to make a model of a alien creature, and to fully rig the charcter and animate it. The character is going to interact with the urban scene that i am also creating, it will be part of it.
