Production 1, Mid-terms

Right now we are in the middle of Mid-Terms for the first half of production.  We have already finished 2 milestones, are are finishing up the 3rd, with 5 total milestones this quarter.  So far, I have completely reworked the timing, several key concepts, and the style.  I am very pleased with the direction this is going, and the real production begins today.

From here on out, I need to have my character rigged, models built, environments developed, and animation blocked in, for starters.  I have already started with building some of the assets, such as the various environments.  As for the style, I am going for an elongated and slightly skewed look, which I plan to place in the 1950's through the design of the objects.  I want to make this look something akin to stylized realism, using realistic lighting and rendering and textures on a highly stylized world.

So here are the new developments for the film, including style guide and a 3D Animatic.
