VFX Jam
UPDATE 18/07/15
I decided to go back and see what I could do to improve the final product:
Earlier this week I took part in a three day intensive Visual Effects workshop called 'VFX Jam', it was sponsored by The Foundry as part of the Melbourne 'Pause Fest' festival. Having never used Nuke before, and with only very limited experience in the production pipeline for Visual Effects, I was keen to see what I and four other former classmates from uni could do in such a short amount of time.
We made some great progress on the first day of production, deciding on our idea, getting our filming done, modelling and rigging the Robot character, but in the crucial last few hours of the second day before submission we started having issues with our files and unfortunately were not able to finish up to a standard that we all would have liked.
However I am extremely proud of how much our team was able to accomplish in such a short amount of time with such limited knowledge (and on the day after our final student films were due as well!)
