Did I stick to my stroyboard?

I did follow to storyboard to some extent, although not exactly. This was again, a time issue. I didn't have time to create the facial expressions as i think this would have looked very good in the final movie.

Cameras...

The first opening scene is shot through a camera perspective. The camera moves foward and to the side using the autokey tool.

Final boy character....

This is the final boy character. I modelled the boy in 3D smax, like all the modelling. I found it difficult to make him look realistic. I used a turbo-smooth, but was still quite robotic looking. If i were to recreate him i would chamfer all the sharp edges and reapply the turbo smooth. I coloured the whole model red, to give the impression that they were evil (as they kill the frog at the end of the movie).

Final frog character...

Here is the final frog charater. The main shape went pretty well and looks somewhat like a frog. I tried to make it look slightly cartoony to fit in with the theme of the movie. I materialised the frog with frogskin which i found on the interent. I adjusted the hue in photoshop so it would stand out against the green grass and lilly pad, unlike a generic frog colour.

Waiting for it to render...

The sound effects have been added, now I am waiting for the final movie to be rendered so i can then export it. It is expected to take 48minutes.

Film complete...

Now the film is complete i can start to add sound to make the overall effect better.

Im adding a theme tune to play throughout, kids laughing whilst they ply, croaking when its the frog scene, and then funeral bells at the end when the frog gets killed.

Premiere...

Once all the animations are complete, i can start to edit the files in Adobe Premiere. I found it fairly easy to use even though I hadn't received any tutorials on it in the past. Here is a screenshot of the work in progress...
