For some weird reason I can't connect to the Internet at my student house. Me and the lads have concluded that it is probably the router being absolutely shi... rubbish. It's not just me that it's effecting. Ken is also unable to connect for the same weird reason.
So, just to let y'all know, updates are going to be slow for this blog until the problem is fixed. :( For now, the only way I can access the net is at my parent's house.
In the meantime, I've been working a lot with Silo and Maya; taking notes, putting them into practise and generally trying to remember past experiences. So far I've created a low poly character model in Silo, transferred it to Maya, rigged it, weighted it and animated it. All within 3 days.
Looking back, I can see errors with the rig where I haven't parented certain joints, but it's all part of the research. I would post some pictures, but I haven't got them present. I'll try to post them later on.
The other day I also got some handy tips from the training guy (AHHH I can't remember his name) from Zoemode. He certainly had a way with words; I came out of the tutorial feeling boosted and motivated to accomplish more. (A feeling I haven't felt in a long time... well for about 3 years now) I've got a few plans in my head for the coming week. Most of which will involve me making an archive of movement, postures and expressions. I'm going to half-inch my mum and dad's camera and hopefully get some of my house mates to do some mo-cap.
