Final Animation Uploaded

Final Animation

I have started uploading files into Premier. I have also been looking at the music. Tim has given some music and it amazing can't stop listening to Apocalytica. Monday the music can be trimmed and a choice can be made by all. If anyone has music please bring it Monday or put it up on humyo and blog up when you do.

Environment import tutorial

I just helped out lara with importing my sky map, and found it to be a lot harder than I originally thought. So I decided to write a short guide for anyone who wants to use the sky in any renders. The images are shrunk to fit on the page, click them to see full-size.

You will need:
DARK SKY 2.jpg
James textures.mat

Both are on our humyo account in the 'Sky' directory. Open the .max file that you want to put the sky into (i.e. your animation). Press M to open the material editor, then find a blank(default) material, click it, and press G to "get material" or use the button shown on the left.

Now, choose "Mtl library" where it says "Browse From:", and click 'Open'. Then go find the .mat file you downloaded, and it should have 3 materials in it. You probably want 'Gloomy Sky'.










Now this is kinda where I messed up. I thought that a .mat file would store the images and so on, but it doesnt. So you'll need to tell max, where the actual .jpg is again. To do that, scroll down on the material editor, to Bitmap parameters and click the big button to relocate the file.

Final thing to do, is set that material as an environment. Press '8' to make the Environments window appear (or find it on the toolbar under 'render'). Then drag your material over to the button that holds the environment map. You want to make an instance, that way any adits to the material will effect the one being used in the environment.

As you can see, a benefit of spherical environments, is that the reflections come out nice in close-ups. A lot of people use high quality reflections as an illusion of detail in the scene.

That instance copy thing can be useful, because I found that you can do it the other way around. You could load a .jpg into the environment button, then drag an instance into your material editor, to make it spherical, shiny, bright or whatever. For example if you want a real simple sky, just create a gradient, chuck it in the editor, make the gradient blue to white, and spherical, and thats it.

Music

Yesterday I researched a few pieces of music which I thought might fit. I will bring them in Friday so you can all say what you think.

Scene 20 completed

I will upload the mast breaking scene 20 tomorrow.

Ships!

OK, Humyo was not letting me download the Trinidad ship properly, but I managed to get a copy from Tim, however problems again have occurred. I presume that Tim did not texture the ship green, because I have not got the version that is mapped, again! And I don't even know how! This is confusing me sooooooo much! I am animating them though now, so hopefully I can ask Tim to see if he can sort out this problem.

Note to Tim. I forgot to mention please render the nelson walking scene from two different angles. sorry I forgot, Thank you

Monday!

Being able to use Max on a Monday is quite useful, Sam managed to complete scene 21, minus the sky, Lara has been creating good wakes, along with having some problems with her wake, one of the problems was quite amusing and made her ship look like it was floating, as though abducted by aliens. :) :) Lara will understand (scene 3, adapted to create scene 9 and 10). Leah has created a very good Nelson falling to the ship deck after being shot. Kieron has been working hard on the facial movements of Nelson, and I believe is using Leah animation and adapting part of it for the scenes where his facial expression is focused upon (scenes17 and 19). If anyone is unsure as to what happens in the scenes, refer to Ali's blogs with the storyboards. Ben also made an appearance and he is working on the animation from inside to gun deck, we had a little ca ht about it and it will now, briefly, involve a crew member (scene 12). Were really approaching the crucial point now and ideally the finishers need to have all the animations, complete, by Friday morning. This means animated and rendered. As for mentioned in the Friday meeting, Tim has been nice enough to offer his computer for rendering purposes. This means that the complete animations along with all the related files needed, for mapping etc, need to be passed onto him before Thursday. I know he's not a fan of Humyo, as he doesn't have very good net connection of an evening, so if you manage to complete any animations and can't render them yourself, try and get in touch with Tim. I have his number for any of you who don't.

I believe we can do this guys, lets all work hard and create a great final piece.

Sky Map

The skies are ready. I've uploaded the files to humyo... details, videos and instructions are on my blog post here.

Might be an idea to use both, perhaps the sunset on later on. Either way, for any outdoor scenes it'd be good to organise which scenes need which sky... We dont want continuity problems from the sky changing between the two every scene!

models needed in each scene

People,

I have listed all the models needed in each scene from 7 - 27, we should be able to recycle scenes to make it easier. I've also made a couple of scene cut suggestions. any feedback would be great.

Scene 7

Boy on French ship
Canon
Gun powder container
French ship deck
Sea

Scene 8

French ship
Canon balls
English ships
Sea
Environment

Scene 9

French ship
British ship
Sea environment

Scene 10

See scene 9, just change camera view

Scene 11

British ship
Canon balls
Rigging – French ship
Man
Environment map

Scene 12

British ship / canon deck
Canon
French ship
Canon balls
Sea

Shrapnel

Scene 13

Canon balls
French ship – shrapnel
Canons

Scene 14

I’m not too sure this scene is vital, so for now I suggest we just make a scene of carnage, to save having to animate someone being shot by a canon ball.

So models would be;

French ships
Sea
English ships
Environment
Shrapnel

Scene 15

Nelson
Deck of victory
Crew
Canon

Scene 16

Man over board??? Same as scene 14 really

Scene 17

Humyo Downloading

Im trying to download the Spanish/French Ships in order to try animating them, however I can't seem to get them with their maps. I don't know if they have been completed or not or if I am not downloading them properly! Advice would be great! Thank you!

Crow Nest

Crow nest is ready.

Scaling

Leah, the scaling issue was not directed at you so please don't take it personally, it was simply that you had made the ship and plane too small.

OK, this is how Tim described to me to be the best way to scale things, in the customize menu, at the top of the max screen, go to units and change it to metric, and metres. Once this is done create a rectangle which is the height of nelson. This will be your 'measuring stick'. Once you've done this you use the measuring stick to gauge a ratio of Nelson to a ship, so if nelson is 1 metre high and the ship is 100 metres high, then you duplicate the measuring stick and scale it up by 100 times and then scale the ship to be the same size, using the height element, as the stick.

I hope this makes sense, maybe if anyone does re-scale a ship when they save the scene they could make this apparent in the file name so people could use some of the models if needed.

Items Needed

I am currently working on scenes 3 of the view of the ships, scene 5 of the crows nest and the scene of nelson walking. However none of these scene are possible to create.
For scene 3 I scaled original sea and ship with nelson but apparently was not correct so I need the correct way to scale the enemy ships in the scene correctly.
For scene 5 I need the crows nest and the biped for the sailor in the crows nest.
For the scene of Nelson the final mapped nelson is not available yet, however this is due to a saving error which I was aware of yesterday and I have uploaded nelsons biped onto Humyo to be remapped.
Please can you let me know when these parts are on Humyo and I can start animating before Friday. Can someone also let me know the scale and I can complete scene 3 on Thursday morning when I will be in doing extra work.

Victory

The full version of the victory is now up on humyo.

Note for all

This is a little note for all, but also mainly aimed at Leah. All will make sense...

The scene of all the scaled item that leah put together are actually not scaled correctly, In comparison to the ship Nelson was far too big, so, I've rescaled the items and posted them back upto Humyo. To keep the sea animation correct I had to up the number of segments on the plane so it may take a while to load.

Hope the animations are all coming together. Scene six has been created by Richard, and I'd like to offer my greatest thanks for that as he is not an animator.

If anyone is finding that they are at a stand still with waht to do, compilation of scenes would be good. This wasn't really set out as a job but will make it easier as were animating.

See you guys all friday. 10 o'clock please, we've got a lot to do.

Scene 6

Hey guys I have really simply put together scence 6 and have animated the flaps being pushed open by the cannons. It is on the net space

Uploads to Humyo

All the sails that have been uploaded on to humyo are now animated and have been loaded into the ships file and in a new folder called animated sails.

• Also post up screen shots of your progress on your blogs and in the computer room with the other print outs.
• Tims has finished the musket and will upload shortly.
• Jo will have the sky texture finished by wednesday.

Important - Animation deadline is friday 2nd.

Sound effects!

Richard and I managed to obtain from the media lab 2 CD’s of sound effects, which we went through today. We took some good sound effects from them and created some really effective ambient WAV files in Premier Pro. We have made them to be about 1 minute long so that when we come to the final animation, we should have them long enough to be able to re-use or to cut in order for it to fit. They have been added to humyo as I cant seem to add them to this!

Me and Richard also managed to find a microphone and so recorded some narration for the begginning of the animation. I have included this on my blog, but I will post it here as well:

"The Battle of Trafalgar saw the British decisively defeat a combined French and Spanish fleet on 21st October 1805 in the most significant naval battle of the Napoleonic Wars.

A Royal Navy fleet of 27 ships of the line destroyed an allied French and Spanish fleet of 33 ships of the line of Cape Trafalgar in South-West Spain.

The French and Spanish lost 22 ships, while the British lost none. The British Commander Admiral Lord Nelson, died late in the battle, by which time he had ensured his place as Britain's greatest naval hero.

In the Battle of Trafalgar, Nelson orchestrated a controversial battle plan that had scarcely been seen before.

Popular battle tactics at the time involved maneuvering to approach the enemy fleet in a single line of battle and then engaging in parallel lines.Nelsons plan was to deliberately cut the opposing line in two, approaching in two columns sailing directly at the enemy, one near the centre of the opposing line and one near the trailing end.

His ships would break the enemy formation in half, surround that half, and force them to fight to the end. Nelson specifically hoped to cut the line just in front of the flagship: the isolated ships in front of the break would not be able to see the flagship's signals, hopefully taking them out of combat while they reformed.

The result of this plan was truly devastating......."

Getting files from Humyo

This morning I have been getting the rest of the ships I need to animate of humyo. However when downloading the files they all have no link to their maps as only the max file has been uploaded with no attached map files. We need to some how load up the maps with each scene.

On all the ships I have opened so far there are no sails which I was going to animate this morning. Next I will attempted to add some sail to animate unless anyone has create some. Please let me Know.

I have seen that James T and Tim were both organising the files with separate folders so this morning I have added an animation folder, a videos folder and a nelson folder. I have also put all the ship is into the ships folder. I did this as I could not differentiate which piece of work was for which stage of the animation. Hope this ok. Any ideas on how to categories the work would be brill.

Online storage

I've uploaded the cannon on to our online storage now (humyo). I tested out the Resource Collector Tim mentioned. Its a very useful tool, to output all of the resources used into one folder. Keep in mind some textures with .jpegs etc will copy or output the .jpegs into the folder, but the 3dsmax built ones ith in built noise and so on, will just be stored in the .max file. After outputting all o that into the folder, I RAR'd it, and put it on our storage.

Havent really had time to play with humyo yet, but the drag and drop upload was cool. I dont know other peoples experience with ZIP/RAR/TAR compressed files, so if anyone has problems with .rar format, get in touch, but I'm pretty sure either Windows XP has a way of using it like a folder, or WinZip, WinRar, 7-zip can be downloaded to extract them. I'd advise using them on files if they get really large in size, or a huge amount of maps etc.

I'm going into uni again today because my laptops running 3d stuff awfully slow now. Rigging is practically done, should have the sails done tomorrow too. I would like to work with Tim for a bit, to merge the files, and make sure thats all neat, and I think tomorrow would be a good time for me to work on environmental stuff. I can't remember exactly what I'm doing with environmental things, but I want to get a sky dome done.

Looking good!

It's good to see people using the joint blog, and the storage site. I hope this is making things easier. Leah has offered to do the animation of Nelson, and has played around (with the help of James W) with making a smoke effect so those two parts of work that James was going to do should be ok. I'm going to have a look over what else was assigned to him and what work other people are doing or have done and re-assign the rest of his work.

If people could help me out by posting up on here what work they have already completed or are working on that would be a great help.

I just wanted to remind everyone that we should have all the mapping completed by Fri, and that the animators should have an idea of what they are doing, so that the animation can be complete by next week.

If anyone is having any problems please let me know.

Brittish ships

Hey guys, I've just uploaded the other (smaller ships) so the mappers and animators can get busy! ;)

Re-assigning Animation

Today James West has been working on rigging Nelson with a biped. Once completed he is meant to animate Nelson, however if he leaves us I would like to animate Nelson walking as today I have had a go using a biped. James will finish rigging Nelson this week and upload the file for the animation.

James west was also going to be completing the smoke effect which I have completed on my blog. We will need to re-assign the other parts of animating Nelson.

Sails Movement

I have now added a map to the sails added movement. I had to add the canvas map to make the movement show up a little more as the white sail with no map did not the full effect.




I have also added the water. Any ideas on my making the movement more visible or any suggestions let me know.

Uploads

I've just uploaded my lamp, barrel and ammunition to the storage site.

Online Storage

K, Guys and Gals,

We now have our very own online storage space. here are all the details. We need to keep all the finished work on here so that everyone can access it as and when they need it. Pass this on to make sure everyone knows.

You can upload any files, as you'll see to test i uploaded my room of exploding barrells. Hope to see some more files soon.

Ok, so this week, its 11 o'clock and theres a fair amount of people here, weve just had our meeting and the following has been decided,

We're sticking with all the scenes but were gona concentrate on getting the main ones done so that we have a complete film, were pretty much on time at the moment but we only have 3 WEEKS left so we need to keep focused, and knuckle down, Lara and Richard are going to the library today to try and get hold of some sound effects to add to what Marc has already found.

Most models have been made at this point so were passing them onto the animators and mappers and should start seeing some good results soon. Im gona have a go at one of the animation scenes today using Richards Victory ship. James W may be leaving, which we'll all be sad to see, so we need to reassign his work to other people. So... we need someone to do the nelson animation, and other people animations. This is a major job, anyone who feels they have nothing to do, or maybe wants to try doing some animation then please let me know so that we can get this underway. For now thats all I got to say.

Keep up the good work, those who are contributing on a regular basis, and can we all please a try a little more punctual, we need the entirety of friday lessons to get this work complete.

Also, we need to communicate with each other more, the minute a model is finished/mapped/animated we need to pass it straight over to the next person. Either contact through the blog or through someone who has the persons phone number. We need to contact each other more regularly than just seeing each other on a fri.

Friday 16th November Meeting Minute

Now my job is set as meeting scribe here are the minutes from today's meeting.
Lets start with the modelling.

Modelling
Completed models so far

• Nelson's Hand
• Nelsons Office
• The Victory Ship
• Tim's Modelled ships
• Nelson Himself - Note: nelson currently has two arms and only has one!!

Modelling needed to be completed today:

• We need some sort of group work station where our work can be stored in one place.
• Rigging - James T
• Sails - James T
• Crows nest - James T
• Person In crows nest - James W
• Cannon Deck - James S
• Cannon Balls - Ben
• Cannons - Ben
• Barrels - Ben
• Uniforms - James W will create today.

Note from Tim - He has now blogged on the ships he has created and is contactable via the Internet.

Mapping

Today the modelling needs to be finished so it can be passed onto the mappers and animators. Some of the modellers have been mapping as they have been modelling but modelling needs to be finished to deadline.

Animation

Jobs have now been split between the group

• James W. - Nelson animation - including boning, Smoke. Nelson may prove difficult to animate as Nelson was produced light waves, we will have to wait and see!!

These jobs above may need to be split again depending when James finishes.

• Lara - Ship Movement (still be researched)- This can now start being animated as Richard has completed the Victory. To animate this the parts might have to be group so the all have the same movement. Currently the ship is not mapped, to be done this week.
• Leah - Sails Movement, sea movement & Fire - Will still need a little help from James W. on the sails before leaving to gain further knowledge.
• Sam - Explosions- It may take a while to create the explosions as the animation movement of the other parts needs to be created first to see where this effect will be position.

Sam is also looking at the bullet time effect to be used on some of the scenes.

Finishers

Sound effects- Marc has a CD of sound effect and Lara is finding sound effects on the Internet. Leah is looking at the main music and the credit music which currently stands at Captain Pugwash.

Narrator also needs to be considered and when it will be recorded etc.

Rendering - Think about the use of batch rendering and having a day to render. The key scenes need to be rendered first which are crucial to the storyline.

Transition- When scenes are rendered they need to have a second at the beginning and the end to add transitions without overlapping on the sequence itself.

Comments to be read by ALL !!!!!

• Firstly a very important point, this is a teamwork based module so we must work as a team.
• It is now WEEK 8 we must make a move on this. Time is of the essence!!
• Every week now we need to have a quick meeting at the beginning of each session so we keep up to date and on target.
• People MUST turn up on time or turn up at all!!!!
• A group work station need to be created where all the work can be kept.
• We have a new group blog, give Sam your e-mail and she will send you an e-mail to join.
• When modelling you MUST start naming your parts.
• Panos Please Comment on the parts you will be completing within your groups.

Well...

So, as you can see Leah has kindly posted the minutes from the first meeting up onto our joint blog. It would be really good to see some other blogs being published other than these, such as any comments on how things are going so far, or indeed posting some finished work so that people can see our progress.

I actually want to have a bit of a rant, so please bear with me as this is not aimed at everybody.

OK...
If anyone other than leah, and lara, and myself have been looking at each others blogs then you will have noticed a very good, very well modelled Nelson, which has been slaved over by Ali for a considerably large amount of time. You will notice he has blogged and documented his work so that we can all see the progress. This can also be said for Tim to some extent, although since the blog about his ship, then seagull there hasnt been anything else put up, but he has documented some work. I know for a fact that Marc has finished his model, in fact it was finished by last week which is great, even though I dont have a blogger address that works for him, I know things have been done. Again, the same can be said for Richard, he had nearly completed his model last week. Ben has been modelling, but has also been mapping stuff at the same time, whilst this may seem like a good idea and we are seeing some great work posted on his blog, BECAUSE HE IS DOCUMENTING FOR ALL TO SEE, its not really the way its ment to work, but we'll discuss peolpes opinions on this tomorrow.
People need to be documenting work more.

I appreciate that we all have other stuff going on, and its not always easy to work on this project, but we still need to.

Basically the point I want people to understand is that the blogs are a way for use to work as a group and document our progress so that no one feels 'in the dark'. We need to work together to get this done, and at the moment all I'm seeing is individuals.

Lets start working as a team.

We'll have a meeting first thing tomorrow, so, I suggest anyone with anything to say needs to be there.

Thank you if you read my rant.
