As you can see from the above picture I am well into the compositing stage now!! I wanted to use Nuke, but with so little time left I decided it would be better to use After Effects instead (which is still a very good piece of kit).
I was able to get a lot of help from Rob who is particularly good at compositing. I'm doing a bit of masking/rotoscoping now and already added some blur, noise and colour correction effects so very close to rendering out the finale finale fin fin finished finito DONE!
The next stage of Client Project will be to render out (which I should've done in the beginning!!) the Bones, Wireframe, Mesh without Materials, Mesh with Materials, Mesh with Lights and Animated dog. All of which will fade into the next one on a "turntable". Then from the last turntable position, the dog will jump forth into the scene that I am compositing.
So some editing still to be done but this should hopefully demonstrate the process I went through in order to achieve the video clip.
Damn I want that first!! I'm going to put in many all-nighters if I have to, starting tonight!
I also want to have it all packaged nicely in a DVD case with two DVDs. One DVD will be the final footage that will play automatically. The second DVD will contain all the files, assets etc. that I used to complete the project.
Wish me luck - 6 days to go!!
