A while ago Mr. B told us about the rest of the year and what we have coming up for the fourth quarter. We are very behind so we have to fit lighting, cameras, and rigging into a single quarter with time left at the end for EOC review as well. We are going to be doing all of lighting in a single week which sounds super tough and I'm not really looking forward to it if I am being honest.
Last year we did a little bit on lighting but didn't go super in depth. The little that I have used it though, it seems unnecessarily tough to do and seems like a big hassle for no a lot of reward. After that is cameras and I remember doing an assignment with cameras last year where we made a spaceship and a city scene then we had our camera follow our spaceship around the city while it flew around. It's a very tedious process from what I remember, but I hope there's some shortcut that I didn't know about back then. I think we have about a week or two for cameras which makes sense because it's not too huge of a topic, but rigging, on the other hand, is a different story. There's been lots of talk about rigging since the first quarter from Mr. B, Christian, and the other older kids in the class about how hard and long it is to do, so I don't really know what to expect, but I'm hoping the outcome is worth all the hassle and how long the unit is. I think we plan on doing rigging for about 6 weeks but I'm not really sure about the schedule. I hope that Mr. B goes a little easy on us in the last quarter of the year because I really don't want to be as stressed out I was this quarter with game design, it really sucked. I hope he lets us get creative with the stuff we animate and we can make it our own and actually have fun in this class.
