What Did I Do?

 So... Summer was a thing that happened. And to be totally honest, it was not as eventful as it should have been, especially not on the production front (though I did take a nice General Astronomy course over the summer, that was pretty great). But now it's time to start buckling down and finishing this project. So first thing's first, a list of items I'm currently working on. We're plugging away:

  1. Concept art for the time machine
  2. Ideas for pictures to tell the flashback story
  3. Miscellaneous items for various scenes (including but not limited to)
    • The PPoS
    • Science awards
      • Breakthrough Prize
      • National Medal of Science
      • Milennium Technology Prize
      • The Nobel Prize
    • Other things probably
 This past week (how has it already been a week?) I started and scrapped the PPoS 3 different times. I don't know if I was being hypercritical of the work, or if it was actually bad, but I'm starting to find a school/production/work/life balance. Hopefully I'll be able to keep that shit up all semester.

 Anyway, in the first week we came up with a new direction for the short, that the whole team seems to be excited about (and we don't have to animate talking, thank the gods). With the Help of Brett and Howard, we decided to go a little more(?) emotional with the story, but that does mean that we need to start adding and removing content to make it different. We'll get there, and it'll be fine.

 Also, Tom hooked us into a thing called Monday and we're going to be using it for the time being to keep on track, and it's going to be great. Have I said that too much? Maybe I have.

Less Than Two Weeks Left

 This one's going to be short and sweet since we're less than 14 days out. We've been going hard on animating the last couple we...
