Well I hit my first milestone this year for senior thesis. Critique was a big success -- got a lot of great suggestions. Chunk's collar will be fixed (finally), the chair's "hands" will be rounded, and a slew of other small changes -- but give the turntables and pictures a looksee, they're preeeeetty finishedish.
But the biggest change of all is that the whole power-outage/losing his work on the computer thing is going out the window. It's not terribly necessary, a bit awkward, and slows down the beginning of the piece. This is buying me 12-22 seconds where I can have more of the struggle with Chunk and the Chair. The end seems a bit too quick right now. To see what I mean here is the old animatic. http://www.rsad.edu/~edrobile/finalanimatic.mov
If you see me in the near future and I look like I want to commit suicide (or already have), please just poke me with a stick (preferably in the cornea) and bolt. We have to have a 3D ANIMATIC IN A MONTH, and I cannot stress how absurd that due date truely is.
