Ted's office

Ted doesn't have enough time in the day to keep his office organized. Who does nowadays.

Pirates!

Peter and Liz have worked really hard to make this next prop/set piece look amazing!

Star Face WIP

Here is a WIP of Star Face's rig! For his starfish tentacles, he is going to have a dynamic system that was set up using Maya hair follicles.

And he has a starfish for a face!

Rig WIP Calesthenics

Here are some of the rigs that I, CJ Camacho, have been working on. Ted is still a work in progress, but he is getting there!

We have prop textures!

The modeling team has been hard at work creating some amazing textures for our props. Here is a quick preview!

Textures!

Been a while but we have some textures to show off! Our texture artists are doing a stand up job getting all of our models to look amazing.

Our hero!

Our hero has been finished for a bit, but we waited until today to make his big debut, and here he is!

Animatic

We made a very rough animatic, and here is your chance to see it! This animatic was a very early draft for the animation, so it's missing a few scenes. You can see the scenes we added in the last blog post.

Concept Previews

It seems silly posting the concepts after showing some of the finished product, but better late than never! We started concepting our characters late last year, around August. Liz Paradis has created some amazing concepts for our main characters, as well as concepts for our sets. Here are a few previews of what is soon to come!

We also have our story board and color key images for you to take a gander. This story board is our latest version for the animation.

Prop Preview

We finished a lot more props. Here are preview images of them. Textures soon to come!

Room Renders!

Back with some test renders of our office scene. Peter has been working hard with Renderman to get us some really nice results.

Time for some models!

It's been a while, but we have some models to show! Our modeling crew has been working hard to get us some fantastic results. I have to say, as director, I'm really proud of all the hard work they're doing for us. Here's some of their work:

We're keeping a good pace, and making great progress.
