I'll make a list of assignments, honestly, just to organize it for myself:
• Room
• Make something that moves
• Make an object in Maya and place it as a smart object in Photoshop and make an ad from it
• Character Animation
• Station ID?

I think that's it. It's probably not much, but I'm still in the beginning stages of the program.

The first 3 things aren't so bad. The character animation though. How long do you have to do it in? Do you have a modeled and rigged character? How many seconds of animation?

Pretty sure it needs to be modeled and rigged, yeah.
I'll get specifics from someone. The last two might be the same thing, too.

Well I hope you have a shit load of time for that.

Nope. Need it done by... May 5th, is it? I freaked out all this semester due to the ridiculous amount of bullshit I had to do and didn't do much of anything.

Ahhhh you're fucked then if you have to do character animation and don't have modeled rigged characters.

You've gotta see what people in my school do, though. Yeeks. I could submit anything and pass.

That makes me a sad panda. :(

But good for you, and good luck dude. I just realized yesterday that from January like 15th through April 30th I'll have completed 100 seconds of body animation, 10 - 20 seconds of facial animation, modeled a shit ton of stuff, textured a shit ton of stuff, and lit and rendered 11 scenes. Fucking shoot me.

Cripes, I feel for you. Honestly, I'd love to see what you're doing once you think it's in displayable state.

I'll tell you I'm happier with the stuff I've been doing at Animation Mentor, than the stuff I've been doing for my thesis. Mostly cause I can just focus on the actual animation instead of doing animation, lighting, texturing, modeling, etc etc etc.

My reel right now is pretty much just all AM stuff. I probably won't have my Thesis stuff on there for a few months. I'd say the animation needs another month or two of work for ME to be satisfied with it. I think I'll pass thesis with what I have but I'm not happy with it.

WOW, is that what inspired your title suggestions?
