Final Project - Challenges/Decisions

I have faced many challenges and tough decisions throughout my time spent working on this project, most of these have been based around easing the workload and therefore making this animation easier to complete before the deadline.

- How to tackle mirrored animations?

-Copy keyframes and change to negative value

- Attempt rotoscoping using "green-screen" in Maya to allow for the 'windowed' effect i want the other world to have

- Could simply re-render animations from different angle and with scout model using blu-scout texutre, then use green screen to place into main animation.

o Is this possible?

- Sound?

- Simple case of 'if i have time'

- Camera:

- View through camera (panels > view through selected)

- Camera Setup:

- Resolution
- Aspect Ratio

- Researched film resolutions

-  Setlled on aspect ratio of 2.39:1

- Resolution of 2048 x 858 then revised to 1024 x 429 (50%) due to time constraints.

- Camera Control:
