Pre-Production & Production Update

Image
 I have been making great progress with this project to the extent of completing the renders for the video sources.  Since the last update, I have been working on the pre-production documents required such as Proposals, Installation plans, notes on technologies and equipment needed, sound plans, production schedules and shot lists. As well as the pre-production, I have been working on creating the sources needed for the project in Blender and After Effects.  To begin the production stage, I started with creating test renders of other planets and using a variety of textures and normal/bump textures to make the models more realistic. The textures used in this project is supplied from Solar System Scope which has selection of textures available to download and use for free and without any sort of attributions required. The textures are distributed under Attribution 4.0 International license. https://www.solarsystemscope.com/textures/ After this test, I began to work on Pluto and Saturn ov

Pre-Production Update #1

Since the start of this unit, we have been assigned to originate and create an idea for a video installation. The brief specified that our exhibition should relate to the keyword "isolate". We would then present our idea on 29th April. I have been developing my idea throughout this time, creating the pitch PowerPoint.  After the pitch, a range of suggestions was given that can further enhance the interpretation as well as making the presentation easier with using the TriCaster to display video sequences on the JVC display without having to use DVDs and other such equipment that would be needed to present the videos. Over the next few days, I will be working on the Pre-Production which should be done by next week (est).
