Animation movie

[rob_c]

Been working on a new sequence recently and I was able to render two new shots (finally!). I still have a lot to do (models, animations, etc.), and the scene is quite demanding… I’m curious myself how it will look at the end.

Recently I was tempted to reveal something more, but I think that until the end I will refrain from disclosing more important information about the movie

This is one of the concepts for the sequence I'm working on right now. I know It doesn't show much and doesn't make much sense...for now

[rob_c]

Not much to say, I just wanted to refresh this thread

[xesf]

They look adorable

[rob_c]

Again, not much to say : )

The end of the year is approaching, so it's time to write the latest update for this project.

Thanks to the Christmas break, I could work on the movie more and generate a dozen new shots (finally!). It's hard to say when I finish the movie, there's still a lot to do, so we'll see. Although I can't work on it every day, working on this movie is the best fun I've ever had of all my personal projects.
One of the coolest things about this project is the opportunity to do something a bit different. I can combine situations that have occurred in the game with something new, bring some known characters, locations, etc and introduce new ones. I don't want to reveal anything more for now. I can only hope you will enjoy some of these new ideas : )


(still frame from the movie with a new character)

Super. Let me know when we can do the music

[rob_c]

Sure
I can't wait ; ) I don't know when it will be finished but as soon as I have a draft version I will contact you

It's been over two months since the last post, so it's time for a quick update. Couldn't work on the movie every day, but I managed to produce some new stuff anyway.
At this stage, I don't know how long this movie is going to be, but judging by the footage I have, it can be longer than I expected.

For the upcoming LBA2 birthday event https://forum.magicball.net/showthre...036#post459036 I could create a short teaser trailer and give it to one of the twitch streamers, but on the other hand, such a trailer will reveal the plot of the film...

[rob_c]

To celebrate LBA2's birthday, I made a short clip. Wish I could show the finished movie today, but despite quarantine, I am busier than usual.

(Happy birthday LBA2)

I have two weeks off, starting Monday. Will spend that time on the movie, which will significantly speed up its production.

Hey everyone

It has become a tradition to share with you a short production report at the end of the year.
It's been a tough year. The pandemic caused I had an excess of work, and I had to implement my commercial projects from home. Those were long and hard months. All that slowed down the work on the film. But I assure you, I didn't give up on this project. Even when busy, I was still trying to create new shots and move forward with the film. I have never left a project unfinished in my life.

On Friday, 19th December, I was tested positive for covid. According to the rules, I have a mandatory 10-day quarantine. Now I have more free time; thus, I will work more on the movie.
I have made a new cut of the film with more new scenes and footage. Not finished yet, but it's fun to see how these scenes and sequences work together. There is still a lot to do and correct, but I am pleased with the current cut. Certainly, the film will be longer than I initially assumed. I will have the first full cut/version of the movie in a few months. Finally, I will contact Jesse to discuss the music path/direction we should follow, the feelings we want to emphasize etc. I cannot wait for this

This year I showed you two short trailers of the movie which were well received. I also got positive comments for which I am very grateful.

edit: I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a better, more joyful 2021
