Conveyor Belt Styles

After showing the rest of my group the interior i had created there were some issues regarding the conveyor belt leading to the machinery at the back of the scene. Some people felt it wasn't in keeping with the rest of the barn and said it looked like something from 'Alien' the movie. I decided to do another design for the conveyor belt which i feel is more suited to the barn.

Shaping Exterior Environment(Intro)

Refering back to the intro in the animatic i have started to blockout the scene to look like the concept i created(view post Tuesday 4thDec).

Shaping inside of the barn

With Reywel Hylands keen enthusiasm for 3d modelling a lot of the assets in the scene were already created for me. My task was to shape the interior to the ideas i had for it. I changed the layout Rey sent me and added various other elements to it such as the big machinery consuming the eggs at the back, the conveyor belt mechanism, the coop area where our chicken is kept and various other assets.

I have finished uv mapping the coop area where our chicken is kept. It was initially modelled by Rey but i had to tweak certain areas(scale,poly count) to fit the look i had in mind

Veteren Chicken Ready for Texturing

I have now completed the uv mapping of the veteran chicken i modelled. The next process with will now be to texture the main and the veteran chicken. Due to the demanding nature of this project i have decided on the investing more time in the interior and exterior of the barn therefore leaving Raywel Hyland to texture the chickens. Due to some members of the group not pulling there weight i have had to focus on areas that don't interest me as much but for the sake of the overall project i have sacrificed the areas i enjoy to fulfil ones that need to be achieve for this project to be completed on time.

Finished UV Mapping 2 Characters

Here is the finshed uv maps for the main and veteran chicken. At last done. Texturing can now begin.

Also Modelling Veteran Chicken

UV Mapping of Main Chicken

After working on the establishing concept i have continued to model and started to uv map the main chicken in the story.

Concept piece for Establishing shot

I created this concept with the help of Philip Straub and his artwork. I manipulated his work to fit in with the shot i wanted to create rearranging the composition and adding other elements. I really like this piece and feel it would look good for the introduction of our story. I will continue to play around with it and find other looks.

Concept for Opening Shot

Having decided the intro for the animatic is sorted.I decide we needed some concept for what will be in the scene. Ian and myself will be doing some concept for the look of the shot when the truck is comming down the hill. I have taken some images from the internet which i think will help.
