Short movie animatic - 3rd shot

Here is the animatic of the 3rd and final shot of the short movie, since the scenery is the same as the first scene. It's now missing the 2nd and longest shot.

Short movie animatic - 1st shot

I keep developing the short animation movie I'm planning to make in the next months. The script is finished, the characters concept is under development and I started to make the animatic to set times and to see how much scenery has to be made and how many secondary characters will be included.
So here it is the first shot animatic, which might make sense to you only in a few months.

Albert (WIP)

Back to the Albert (still a work in progress), here is a turntable of a coloured model and then an image of a rendered model already with fur. Still some improvements to be made until the final version.

Rio Ave Futsal


I used again camera tracking feature of Blender, this time to create a movie to promote my hometown team, Rio Ave, that might soon return to the first division in Futsal.


Albert

In the portuguese Blender comunity, we are now having a small contest to model a monkey, Albert, from the concept of Anabela Faria.
Here is the concept:

And here is my Albert, still a work in progress. I'm already satisfied with the general shape, although it might need some optimization of the mesh if I want to rig it later. I'll soon create the textures and probably the fur.

Camera Tracking

I've been testing the new camera tracking feature of Blender and although my camera is nothing special and the video quality could be better, I've tried to use the camera tracking.

First, I put my SpaceSheeps flying at home:


Then I used the same video for an April 1st fool, looking like there was a snake at home:
