Updates and the like.

I'm about done with the Old Man, not in that I've almost finished (I kinda have really) more that I'm over modeling him. All I'm missing is his shoes, and some small detail on his top like buttons, and I need to stitch the ear I made onto him, then I think that's it really.

Also, not too sure but I have a pretty strong feeling, that he may have too many polygons on his head.

Double also, I would like to take him into Mudbox or something and get some detail on his head and clothing but I guess that needs to wait really as it's something that can wait and if I have time do it then.

Today I researched nCloth and hair in Maya, I think I found some good and somewhat simple tutorials. Both aren't huge on the list of things to do, and yeah, I now have a list which I'm keeping track of every day, but they are things that I would like to add if I get the chance.
I only did this because I thought I lost some work and tried to do something else before I went home, luckily I had a backup at home.

Some other things that came up today were the photos in the photo album and how I'm going to go about doing those. Originally I was going to do them in 3D but I'm thinking now that I could photoshop, or something similar, the pictures and use something like the After Effects puppet tool to do a small amount of animation like what was in the animatic.

Darren also talked to me about my titles, I realise they are still a ways away seeing as how I haven't begun animating but it was something to think about. Some good ideas were thrown around by Darren and Josie which was helpful.
