Book editing

So I have made the changes in my book that I decided upon yesterday. For two examples i have change the writing colour in the story to show playable and un playable parts I have also move the text on top of the pictures as they weren't clear to see.

Book arrival

My project proposal book arrived yesterday. I have gone through it to see what areas I think need to be changed, like I think the text in the story should be in two colours one colour to show whats playable and one colour to show what is cut sequences, and other things like making the text on the images clearer to read.

Tribes clothes

I figured with each tribe having there own culture and way with the forest theat they would all dress slightly differently, so i have done some clothes designs thinking about the things they would have at hand.

More Weapon design

I have looked more into the design of the weapons such as the shape of the bow as the tribes would be able to bed sticks if they can make huts.

Weapon Design

I did a sheet thingking of different spears and bows the tribe people could have.

Girl animated

I have skinned and boned the girl, sorted out the weight on the verts and have animated a walk cycle. I am quite happy with the way it has came out where this is the first rigged person I have done, well first rigged thing I have done.

Head on girl

Last night I modelled the head and attached it to the girl. I decided not to model the ear as this girl was purely for learning how to rig and animate.

Background work

I have been modelling another person in between my design work for me to rig up and as practice in modelling them. I haven't done the head yet but I am really happy with the improvement in the rest of the body structure, here is a time line image of my modelling, and a model of it at the moment.

Turtle tribe storyboard

This is a storyboard of the cut sequence that is about the turtle tribe agreeing to help with the battle to save the forest.

Proposal document

I have started doing my proposal document, and as I am going to get it printed as a book, I have asked for a test print and my book should be arriving on the 27th.

Font

The font I have decided to use for the title of my game is Brin Athyn. I have chosen this font as I think the smoothness and the old cletic feel works well for a tribal game.

Cut sequence

I have gone through my cut sequence and I have narrowed down the parts that can be used for the cut sequence. The following parts are: The opening part of the story with the description about earth and the ships landing on zuimaco.

The cheif's daughter watching miners and scientists making creatures ill.

The ground tribe going through the scientists tent

When the ground tribe climb back up the trees and start to see smoke and powder on the trees leaves, then get higher to see miners digging up their sacred white mountain

When the ground tribe daughter and warrior sneak around to get to the butterfly tribe, and them seeing the tribe ill and then asking the tribe to join them in battle.

When they fly to the jicotea tribe up to the bit when we see the jicoteas travelling off in the river.

When the warriors take off to war, with the ground shaking and the tanama's flying. Then the other wild animals joining them.


Then finally the battle scene would make a good cut sequence

Yamuy Idea

Where the Yamuy is sacred I tried to make it look special in some way, to do this I extended its ears, and tried to make its face look similar  to the cat images for gods in egypt times.

Ao'n ideas

The Ao'n is a fast running animal, with powerful strong jaw. To illustrate this I have designed the Ao'n in a running position and with its prey hanging from its mouth.

Tanama ideas

I wanted the Tanama to look elegant but strong. I designed a seat for the warriors to sit on when riding the Tanama so that the rider wont fall from a great hight.

Development of animals

I have started developing the animals from the story, here is the jicotea ideas. The warriors sit on the shell of the jicotea, so there is a sheet on the back of the jicotea for the warrior to sit on.

Story

Well I have finished my story, and I have sent it to my tutor so that we can discus what parts would be suitable for my cut sequence. I would post my pdf of my story on here but it doesn't let me so i am going to look into adding a page on my blog for my story to go on.
